Local bitcoins? Though you will have to pay a bit more. Still not a huge difference in the grand scheme of things. I bought my first $80 worth of bitcoins at $580 when the official price was in the low 500's.

This, go to local bitcoins, you'll over pay but not by much.  Best way IMO for people not ready to get onto an exhange.. or not willing to go one one, can't blame you for that.

Localbitcoins is a really good option.I reccommend it-you should easily find a reliable person there and get your deal.

I prefer localbitcoins, btc-e is okay too

Just re-submit your ID in a higher resolution (they request 300 DPI images). It took me three attempts before I became "verified". Their reasons weren't clear, or accurate - a plain English justification would've been nicer than what seemed like computer-generated responses. One of their reasons was that my two-day-old bank statement was more than three months old...

On another note, I recommend watermarking all documents you upload to them (they allow this), in light of the recent Mt Gox hack of identity documents. If a similar thing were to happen to Bitstamp, then it would at least make your documents difficult to use, and the fraudsters would be more likely to just choose someone else's non-watermarked document instead.

I third coinbase!  Easy to use, takes a long time to get your bitcoin but so far seems secure and reliable.  1% fee +15 cents is reasonable too.

I would try again with Bitstamp. I also had an issue verifying identity there but I submitted again and everything went fine. If not, I agree with many before, localbitcoins is great.

Try to fix it and do all that bitstamp wants. They are by far the best exchange. Only bitfinex comes close to them!
