Recorded by Lao Dong reporter today (February 19), the domestic price of plain round gold rings and gold bars increased simultaneously. In Hanoi, many people are still flocking to gold shops to buy gold rings.

On Tran Nhan Tong Street (Hanoi), Ms. Nguyen Thu Ha (Dong Da District) said that many times she came to wait in line but could not buy gold rings because the shop was often out of stock.
"I arrived early today. Currently, the shop has not announced the opening time for plain round gold rings, so I am still waiting" - Ms. Ha said.

Similarly, Mr. Nguyen Van Thai (Hoan Kiem district, Hanoi) also said that buying gold rings at this time is very difficult.
"Today, it's past opening time but they still haven't seen them sell gold rings. Meanwhile, those who want to sell gold can enter and trade immediately, without having to queue" - Mr. Thai said.
Mr. Thai shared that every time he came to buy gold, he saw many people lining up in front of the store. At one point, the store limited the quantity sold and did not clearly announce the opening time.
