Data & coverage
How we source prices, how often each dealer updates, and whether the spot market is even open right now. We track this so our scrapes stay coordinated with reality — and so you can see exactly how fresh each number is.
Several familiar storefronts share a corporate parent. See our online bullion dealer ownership map →
