I mean this one, which is useful in gDocs:
Code: Select all
=Index(ImportHTML("http://apmex.com/","table",7),2,2)
Everything fails once in a while, but it's been several days now.

It looks like they changed their web layout, I use the same formula and it is broken for me also.
melveyr posted the formula awhile ago in this thread.

You know what's strange? I have the same code
Code: Select all
=Index(ImportHTML("http://apmex.com/","table",1),2,2)
In two different google spreadsheets and it gives different prices. Currently, my old sheet says 1374/oz and the new one says 1381.
