Title: Warning: UK consumers currently considering buying through a BitPay enabled site
Post by: thoughtfan on November 19, 2013, 12:03:48 PM
BitPay rate: <£400
BitBargain rate: >£600

I'm not blaming BitPay - with such massive divergence between the exchanges I don't envy anyone trying to come to a fair rate but their claim 'Buyers will always get a better value by spending their bitcoins at a BitPay merchant than by selling them on an exchange. ' is far from being the case right now.

Out of interest, you may find this thread about the price differences intesting too.
