Gold Rush at Costco: Shoppers Flock to Buy and Sell Out of Gold Bars in Hours

Costco has introduced gold bars to its inventory, offering two options priced at just under $2,000 each. The bars, from Rand Refinery and PAMP Suisse, are only available to Costco members and have been in high demand, leading to purchase limits. Customers have been clearing the shelves and expressing frustration online about the difficulty of obtaining the gold bars. Costco's CFO confirmed that the bars sell out within hours of becoming available. Social media platforms have been flooded with complaints from customers who missed out on purchasing the highly sought-after gold bars.
