4 thoughts on “Thailand's gold is so cheap, why are few people buying it?”

  1. Thailand's gold is really cheap, but anyone who knows Thailand's gold knows that it is cheap because it is impure! Everyone buys gold to maintain its value. If Thailand's gold does not maintain its value, naturally no one will buy it walking on the streets of Thailand, you will see shops selling gold jewelry, which are filled with Linluo gold jewelry, but few Chinese tourists will buy it; The main reason is that we all know that the purity of gold in Thailand is not high, and we will not buy gold locally no matter how cheap

    first, the purity of gold in Thailand is very low, so the local price is much cheaper than that in other places.

    in fact, the cheapest gold mentioned should be in India, where gold is just like the price of vegetables in the market, but the purity of gold in India is only more than 70%, which is completely not bought. As for Thailand, although the purity of local gold is 96.5%, it is still not enough for the understanding of Chinese tourists. Most of the gorgeous gold jewelry seen on the way to Thailand are afraid to buy because of the lack of purity; After all, as a Chinese tourist, most of the purpose of buying gold jewelry is to maintain value rather than style and color. No matter how gorgeous the gold style and color are, they can't match the problem of purity

    Second, gold with low purity has no role in preserving value, so most tourists will not choose to buy it.

    the main reason why Chinese tourists do not buy gold jewelry in Thailand is that they are worried that it will not be recycled. Most Chinese tourists buy gold for the sake of appreciation before selling it. However, although the purity of gold in Thailand is more than 90%, it is still quite low; Many shops will refuse to accept transactions because they feel that the purity is not enough, which naturally makes Chinese tourists dare not risk buying gold in Thailand. Some of those who are willing to buy gold jewelry in Thailand now choose to give it to their friends, while others are foolish and do not know the purity. Generally, those who want to buy gold to preserve value will never buy it in Thailand

    Thai gold is actually only a little cheaper than domestic gold, but the purity is too poor, resulting in few people buying it

  2. First of all, the gold jewelry in Thailand is designed and made according to the style liked by the local people, which does not conform to the Chinese aesthetic; Secondly, many gold ornaments in Thailand have complicated processes, which increases the weight of ornaments and the price. Of course, fewer people buy them.
