Comparing Canada Gold Rates by Carat
Resale proceeds may differ from purchase prices because of the bid-ask spread, testing costs and the liquidity of the specific product.
When comparing offers, begin with the per-gram rate, then confirm the exact net weight, carat and total product quote. This makes it easier to distinguish the underlying gold value from dealer premiums or work charges.
Before you buy: ask for the full price, exact weight, purity and any charges that are included in the final quotation.
