Gold in Japan, answered

How is this price worked out?

From the international gold price in US dollars per ounce, converted at the day's rate, divided by 31.1035 grams, then scaled by karat (21K is 21/24 pure). It is the same formula Pockito uses in Wallet.

Which karat is quoted in Japan?

Japanese jewelry is mostly K18, and bullion bars are K24. Shop prices, such as Tanaka Kikinzoku's, differ from the converted international price on this page.

How often does the price change?

This page updates once a day, from the same daily feed Pockito uses. Gold markets close at weekends, so weekend prices barely move.

Why does a shop charge more?

A shop price adds workmanship, the shop's margin and sometimes tax to the metal price, so it runs above this figure. Use this page to judge a quote, not as a shop price.
