I wanna exchange some $$ with btc n be sure if http://www.virwox.com is safe. Can you pls share your experience there if you had any ?

It looks like legit, but the fees make it a scam

sorry i misspelled. thanks for info, i really need that site work

Virwox is safe. Fees for PayPal to BTC is around 20 - 25% and ~0.004 BTC to withdraw.

Your first deposit and withdraw will also take 48 hours.

omg! thats huge i need a site with better percentages then, can you suggest any ?

localbitcoins

localbitcoins is not giving the options i need right now

Those are the fees to do a paypal to btc exchange? That is steep but they are taking on something that many won't want to offer to the public because of all the stipulations that you have to go thru for using the site. But if that is your only option then I guess you have to grin and bare it and eat those fees. :-X

:/  its not really okey. i should find another way smh.

Nope. That's around the price you have to pay until you have a better reputation.

Hmf? I don't think it is legit. The deposit and withdraw tooks so much time before it arrives. The fees are much larger. But not sure, you are pertaining trading BTC/USD. Well mine I use to trade Alternative Coins and the site I use is C-cex. The deposit or withdraw tooks about 3-4 hrs, or even 1-2 Hrs. Depending to Blockchain. The fee is 20K sats fixed, a lot more cheaper right?

c-cex asked me to send a selfie with my id, i was like okaay maybe  later

Thats what cryptsy asked for too when I registered an account with them. Now they have that on file and they are gone. :-\
I wouldn't trust any of these exchanges with my id and info.
But I think they all do for verification purposes.
Not too sure if virwox does if you don't verify your account. But since they are taking paypal my best guess would say that they do. ;)

yes Virwox safe but fees really huge than this.I had an experience with Virwox.I am going to exchange for paypal to btc.deposit $50 paypal then buy linden after linden to btc got around $25 worth btc.Its really suck 50% can you believe guys.who have legal money they never go with Virwox for exchange.Virwox fees are invisible. ;D

Yes those hidden fees come out to 50%. If the buyer knew this before putting in the deposit they would not have accepted it in the first place. But that is how virwox gets you! Once they have your money then they say oh you must pay this much for it.
Any place that deals with paypal being accepted to make payment for buying btc is 50% of the price of bitcoin from now on. I noticed that on several other sites too. I think for offsetting any loss when the price has been decreased significantly caused by a dump like 2 days ago.
That is the price when dealing with paypal to btc transactions that is the new norm. They make you pay out of your a**h0le for taking it! >:(

Yes it is safe, despite the high rates the site is very good already accomplished several transactions in there and never had any problems.

So after all those accomplished transactions you can confirm that they do charge 50% in hidden fees when it all comes in total at the end?

Safe, but the rates are way too high, search for an alternative.
I've used wesellcrypto, but I wouldnt recommend them. Very slow support and rarely a transaction that goes smooth, I always have to wait 24 hours... So go with localbitcoins

Ive tried but but localbitcoin asks for id as well. I am not okey with sending my id or passport.

Yes virwox might be safe, but just their rates are outrageous, 20% on Paysafecard !! and you have to do 2 conversions to get BTC, from fiat to SLL, and then from SLL to BTC and wait up to 48 hours for them to verifyn the payment before sending the bitcoins to you. Patience is advised when using them.

Safe, but the fees are huge too... :-\ :-\ :-\
I think localbitcoin would be a better way, and I don't think you really need to provide ID for a small amount trade

The service is trustworthy and you can make withdrawal with reversible service are like skrill and paypal, but the problem is they apply high fees. I hope high fees is not problem for you.  ;D

Ive changed my mind cos of fees. With high amounths its really disturbing to pay high fees

Yes they have a highest fee, did you want change your paypal to bitcoin? just an information i hear they have been temporarily disabled for changing paypal to bitcoin but you can ask them for detail.

https://cryptonit.net/ offers paypal deposits.

Should you have any questions, feel free to let me know.

Apart from www.wesellcrypto.com being slow in customer services, you had any other bad experiences with them?

Edit: I used their services for first time yesterday, amazing service! I got my money within 10 minutes. I will go again.
