Has anyone had much experience of trading BTC in the UK?

The way i had to do it about a month back was through ebay, however i beleive there are services which allow you to use barclays PingIt. (think its bitbargain.co.uk not sure though)

Yeh, I've just starting looking at bitbargain and done a couple of trades now. Seems to have gone smoothly so far.

Another option might be to buy / sell with someone local in the Bitcoin "over the counter" marketplace - http://bitcoin-otc.com/ (http://bitcoin-otc.com/)

Not too keen on mtgx, would prefer to build up trading in the UK if possible.
