Title: Looking for 23 BTC for USD
Post by: dakota98 on September 04, 2012, 02:57:03 AM
I'm new to this whole bitcoin thing. I'm looking for a trustworthy member that I can exchange USD for 23 bitcoin. Looking to use CC, PP or similar. I tried to get setup with liqpay and qiwi, but the translation sucks. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks  ;D

You probably wont' find much luck trying to buy bitcoins with credit card or PayPal.  PayPal's User Agreement prohibits using the payment network for currency transactions, so no commercial exchanges offer it.  Credit card transactions can be easily reversed so there are almost no methods where credit cards are used to purchase bitcoins.

You don't mention where you are.  If you are in the U.S., QuickBitcoins.net apparently shows credit card as a purchase method yet, though that the coins aren't delivered immediately:

Quite simply, depositing cash at a bank or 7-11, Walmart, CVS is going to be the fastest and easiest way.

 - http://www.Bitfloor.com (Deposit cash at any Chase or Wells Fargo. No fee)
 - http://www.BitInstant.com (Deposit at major banks, 7-11, Walmart, CVS, Moneygram, etc., or in Brazil using Boleto or Banco Recomendito, or in Russia, using Qiwi or Cyberplat.)
 - http://www.CAVirtEx.com (Deposit cash at several banks)
 - http://www.Spendbitcoins.com (Deposit cash at a bank in Australia)
 - http://www.MrBitcoins.com (Deposit at a bank in U.S., India, Australia)
 - http://BitcoinNordic.com (Purchase CashU or UKash in dozens of countries)


The fees aren't trivial but you can use a credit card to purchase by using VirWoX where you can buy SLL using your Serve card as a credit card, then trade SLL for BTC:

This probably does't help you if you are looking to spend the coins anytime soon, but you can buy physical Bitcoin, paid for with credit card:

You might be able to find a local trade:
