Has anyone used this service?
Legit? Specifically doing EMT to BTC conversions.

I've been using Cavirtex for quite a while. (Well, since beta launch a little over a month ago.)  I've had no real issues there.
They've recently shown up on bitcoincharts.org so you can track them vs. mtgox/tradehill/etc.

Typically within $1 of other markets... but low volumes.
Maybe if more people come on board, things will pick up.

Yes, its great to have a convenient option in Canada.  Having used it, all signs look good.

Although I am a bit disappointed at the 1% fee.

I just moved CAD in and BTC out via CAVirtex.
Total process from EMT sent to BTC out took less than an hour.

Very good service.

Hoping moving currency the other way is just as smooth. :)

I've cashed out twice now... both times within the 2 days expected, no issues.
Just be careful with the forms/etc.  I've had to sell a little lower than I wanted to due to low volume/demand, but whatever. Had to pay for the video cards to shut the wife up :/

Well, I spoke to soon- they've at 0.59% now!


Thats great because otherwise we'd probably use cavirtex for the initial purchase/withdrawal, then transfer funds to another exchange for active trading.  And then cavirtex wouldn't make any money, and then we'd be screwed again in Canada!
