I bought from Nafees Jewellers liberty near khussa mahal.they are honest people as far as i know.you just have to tell them 2 hours before you want to buy.

Gold in Market is normally sold at 2% to 6% extra price, that is the cobined effect of dealer profit and currency fluctuation.

The bigger the size of bar, the smaller the margin.

For example, gold worth USD1000 will be given to you on :

1000 * 1.03 * USDRate.

Similarly, when you sell back, its normally done at the same spot price or 2% lower in case of some jewellers.

malik sb always remember one thing whenever u buy gold it shud hav well reputed mark, commonly use swiss and milat (ARY) bars and biscuits. U can buy it from ARY jewlers because they are whole seller and hav ready to deliver anytime, any jeweler will charge his margin in the name of making cost. 100 gram and 10 tola bar margin is between 2500 to 3000, 1 tola and 10 gram makinf cost is between 600 to 800.
