Probably 208 is the retail pricing.

Gold never reach Rm208 before, if not mistaken, it never cross the Rm200 mark.
RM17x is the spot price, the real worth/value of gold.

ic..i never know can purchase at discounted price..thx for the info..

i been asking this as i was approached by my friends husband which is doing gold investment, he explain the plan to me:
i) buy 100g of 999 gold with current market price RM20,800 (RM208 x 100)
ii) upon purchased, he will hand me the physical gold which i can verified at goldsmith shop for purity
iii) after 3 months, he will buy back the gold with profit margin of 7% (RM1456)

that's y i m still considering if i wanna buy from his plan or direct from bank....i did heard alot of scams about gold coins before...sorry if this is not the right thread to ask this blush.gif anyone can shed a light smile.gif

It is not "discount" price. It is the real worth price of gold

Rm208 is the retail price is already taking into account or profit margin.
Instead of saying Rm17x is discount price, you can view Rm208 is gold real worth + profit margin/for retailers.

Gold doesn't yield any interest nor can grow, where he find the money to pay you the 7%?  rolleyes.gif

actually thats what i been wondering as well...i do google and found out that there is a company by the name of Genneva which offer similiar plan....FYI this company is :

CSG Fine Metal (http://www.csgfm.com.my/home.asp )
So-called sub-company of Caesar Gold (http://caesargold.com.my/)

i m thinking if the physical gold given to me is genuine, i still can keep it for future trade if the market grows (if the company run-away)...at the end of the day, is still risk.... blink.gif

Do you know how to verify it is the genuinelity?
So are they selling genuine 999 gold to you at Rm17x/g?  rolleyes.gif

they r selling at RCP RM208/g...i just finished reading another topic of discussion about Genneva which offer the similiar scheme....too much doubts and risks...hence i decided to pull off and start doing my survey to buying gold from banks, even maybe with lower return but with lower risks as well...better safe than sorry smile.gif

thx guys for all the useful reply rclxms.gif

Then you need to see why want to buy gold in the first place.
Majority people want to buy gold so that they can gain money, want to have some inflation hedge etc.

All are about to gain money, so to gain money, the one has lower spread, lower risk is the one preferred.

Unless one really like the gold, want to see the yellow shining metal, want to own and hold the yellow metal, then yes, go for physical.

So you want to buy at Rm208 which the real value is RM17x (buyback), in the process to gain money?

Physical price is based on paper price, this is a fact.

if there is a choice, for sure i dont want the gold physically...a paper will do as long as it apply to the same value
