Why the price in a shop is higher
- Jewellers add a making charge for the craftsmanship, which varies by design and shop.
- Jewellery carries 5% VAT. Investment gold (bars and coins of 99% purity or more, in a form traded on bullion markets) is zero-rated.
- Shop board rates include the dealer's margin over the international price.
