if sell back the item that they hv which is in the spread list, then should be following the spread price, right?

Yes, it should be...usually.

too late...bank closed already. MBB still uses yesterday's gold price (according to it's website) but at the moment the gold price has soared past $1300. By tomorrow, their price would have follow the latest gold price.. you should've have bought it this morning

I notice that when price drop, the bank will keep adjust the price to lower price multiple times per day. But now when rising, they didn't bother to adjust, still referenced to $1320/oz and sell at 174 - buy at 167. When now already over $1330/oz. Are they trying to fool us?

yes they are

Does it defeats the purpose of investment ?

nope. If you do keep track of bank's physical gold price like MBB's or UOB's, you'll notice that they only do that when the price drop greatly. Otherwise, it'll use the usual spot price + some premium.

I thought frontierzone was saying the banks do not increase their buying price in tandem with the gold price increase?
Therefore if one had bought gold at say RM 160/g, when gold price increases 10%, and the bank does not increase its buying price accordingly, or perhaps increase slightly only, the customer who wants to sell his gold to lock his profit may found that the rate of return not as promising as what the world gold price is, since the bank is controlling the buying price.

Hmm.....I didn't keep track of bank's paper gold price so I'm not sure. If that happens all the time then, banks do only increase/decrease a little according to spot price. I've been keeping track of physical gold coin price from MBB and UOB. Observed that UOB is quite consistent with their price and on some occasion only increase/decrease a little. MBB however is slow to use the latest spot price and increase/decrease their price a little but quick to react to big fluctuations.

I noticed buysilvermalaysia.com does the same as MBB too. This is one reason I ceased buying physical gold. You tend to buy at higher & sometimes not so reasonable price.
So are you intending to buy or sell any paper gold? I would say the time of buy & sell really important. Like my case, bought paper gold back in 2009 & based on buying price of PBB at rm170/g last tuesday, it yielded me 5.5% p.a based on compound interest. I would say it's along wait & it's just slightly better than FD Rates but terrible than some of the performing bond funds.

if you're buying gold like that, you should be investing stocks or some mutual funds..
