First thing, bank do not buy gold which does not belong to them.Second, Goldsmith shop especially those listed company do not accept trade in for cash if there is no receipt or receipt is not issued by them. This is to avoid robbery issue and practice good responsibility to the customers and social. So there is trick that people will change it for gold bar then only sell it for cash which will go through double deduction.
Lets say the sale gold price:
Bank: RM165 [cash deal]
Goldsmith shop (PK and Tomei): RM195 [accept cash, credit card, ezypayment 12% without interest for some bar]
Genneva: RM215
Buy back price
Bank: RM158 (dispersion 4% average from RM165)
Goldsmith shop (PK and Tomei): RM170 (dispersion 12% average)
You buy 100 grams from Genneva, can't sell back to them due to some issue. So you go to bank but not acceptable. Go to goldsmith shop trade in for gold bar lose 25% of goldsmith shop price. So from RM215 (Genneva price) became RM146 (we use RM195 - 25%) then trade in for cash minus another 12% only left RM128. So total value disappear around 40%. You prefer to lose 4%, 12% or 40%? You prefer to hold paper gold or physical gold? Are you a risk taker?
