The Water Shell platinum bar is out of stock and store orders are piling up. Stock will have to wait 2-3 days. Some merchants are willing to buy back platinum materials at an additional cost.

The price of platinum has significantly increased recently, reaching a historical high. A reporter recently visited the Shuibei precious metals trading market in Shenzhen and learned that platinum bars are currently scarce in the market. Consumers need to pre-order and wait 2-3 days for purchase. The manager of a platinum store told the reporter that since the price of platinum soared, the sales of investment platinum bars have been hot, selling as much in the last week as in the previous month. Currently, the store still has around 5KG of orders waiting to be fulfilled. Some businesses even mentioned that due to difficulty in obtaining materials from upstream sources, they are now willing to pay a premium on market prices to buy back from consumers.
