Title: How do I get bitcoins directly--I have access to cash/bank account/credit card
Post by: AeroJohn on March 27, 2013, 05:15:24 AM
For instance, there is a site called bitfloor where I deposit cash at a bank and they fund my account but that does absolute shit because I don't want in-website cash. I wanted a bitcoin. Plus, I'm not 100% how long it will take for the process for the money to reach my account so I can try to bid for a bitcoin in the market. So what is the easiest way and relatively cheapest way to get a bitcoin without too much hassle.

Many people use email transfers through on-line banking to avoid travelling unless someone is really close. Put up an ad to buy them and you can bid what you like for them. Use escrow.

Fee is 1% for the advertiser on succesful trades. If the buyer cancels the deal, no fees.  https://localbitcoins.com/escrow_process_guide

Someone needs to satisfy this market.

Because it's hungry.

Perhaps you should create an ad on localbitcoins.com offering to buy them for a fairer price (perhaps offer to pay 2% more than current price) and see if anyone nearby takes you up on your offer.

Ah, competition is good.  Bitfloor only does US Bank, and the nearest branch is 500+mi away.
