Buy Bitcoins with localbitcoins and make Bitcoin deposit to btc-e
Bit expensive though :)

Yeah exactly it seems that localbitcoins is the only way? I used it today a person with a good trade record so I know I'm safe however I don't want to spend money and fees all over the place
What's the best way to trade on btc-e? Has anyone from the uk used them how do you deposit money I could have made a fortune last weekend LTC was 20$

I also buy from localbitcoin, then transfer it to btc-e. All other method of sending fiat currency into btc-e have charges. From 1% to 6%. It really isn't worth it.

So let me understand this you buy bitcoins from localbitcoins
You then transfer the btc to btc-e then you convert to LTC or sell for usd then buy LTC
Then sell LTC and buy btc again then transfer out into localbitcoins and sell your profited btc

Isn't that alot of fees ?

6% is too much but 2% is ok?
Okpay seems okay but it's putting the money into okpay which looks like drama

If you are only going to buy litecoin then go to https://litecoinlocal.org/

If you want to trade litecoin and bitcoin and so on, then use btc-e.

Thanks that sites quite similar to localbitcoins ill have to give it a look,I can ofc buy them there And deposit them into btc and then trade that way?
If the prices rises on LTC I should be able to buy more btc


However on btc-e I think its A bit cheaper who uses it for transfers how do you transfer funds there,?

A little bit late, but Litecoins are now available on Bittylicious. You can select this as your default virtual currency by going to https://bittylicious.com/coin/LTC (https://bittylicious.com/coin/LTC)

Oh, that is good news. Big fan of Bitty. I recommend it if you're in the UK and want BTC & FTC quickly and easy.

You can also buy litecoins on bitbargain, but you'll probably get a better rate buying BTC (on localbitcoins for instance) and selling them for LTC on an exchange like Cryptsy, as others have said.

No matter you are from UK or Australia or some other places, you could try localbitcoins to find traders near you.
