Buying gold/silver bars

AussiePaki
By AussiePaki

Hi all, I have got a small saving that I have been thinking of investing in gold or silver. I want to know a place where can I buy gold and silver bars or coins in Doha? Someone told me Al Fardan Centre buys and sells gold? Is it the one in West Bay close to Sheraton Roundabout or somewhere else? Does anyone have any good/bad experience in investing in gold or silver here in Qatar? If yes, can you please enlighten us with your experience.

Also, I need to know the whole procedure of buying it. Is it simply go and buy and pay, or you need some documentation to go along? Also, at the time of leaving Qatar, if I wish to sell my gold/silver bars or coins, will Al Fardan Exchange or somewhere else will give me market rate to buy back? Is there any fees or tax involved that I should keep in mind?

Regards

If you buy gold you are hoping that the value will keep rising in order to gain a return, it pays nothing in interest and it is possible that it will fall in value in the future, like the housing market in Dubai eventually these bubbles burst.

Gold has been rising fantastically for the last 5 years,entirely fuelled by speculation, the big question is; will it go on?

Only invest what you are not afraid (or can afford to lose)

Al Fardan would be the most reliable place to go for.

Al Fardan Exchange near the Bank street in B ring road (i think ? )

You can just go and buy GOLD or Silver Bars from the Gold shops back of Al Fardan Exchange, no docs required - i belive.

While selling the gold/silver you will get the market rate. (Make sure you keep the bills/receipts of the gold/silver you buy with you)
