We use Bitstamp exchange rates for gold and silver bullion on our Online Precious Metals Site - AK Coins (http://www.akcoins.com). The feed updates at the top of our page in real time.

We have been doing this for a while.  Mt. Gox is just not a realistic exchange rate for merchants to use.

Good move.
