I have a few credit/debit cards, and I want to buy BTC quickly, what would be my best course of action to do so? Any reputable sites accept credit/debit?

You can try VirWoX but you will be paying a premium.

EDIT:  when you say you have a few credit/debit cards, those are your cards, right?  ::)

Yes, they are all mine, LEGALLY

just checking  ;)

just set up a dwolla account.

somehow i don't really believe you

They don't work with credit cards.

Yeah, for a reason.

You probably won't find anyone willing to sell you bitcoins for CC cards because of the risk of chargebacks.

I couldn´t do more than 100 lindensollars before getting blocked by risk API

So to confirm, Dwolla works with debit but not credit cards right

Did you try buying the linden dollars directly through VirWoX, through their website?  I thought the risk API only applies when you transfer linden dollars through linden labs/Lindex.

I am not sure about debit cards and Dwolla.  The only option for funding Dwolla that I know of is through a linked bank account.

Dwolla only works with ACH payments (direct bank account link).

I would be willing to sell limited amounts of BTC for CC for customers showing up in person (Baltimore), with swipeable (card that the mag stripe can be read, not needing to be manually typed in) credit card and MARYLAND drivers license or ID.  ID address has to match the billing address of the credit card.  That is a lot of conditions I know but gives you an idea of what a merchant needs to be safe.

Buying BTC quickly in the USA is best done with a service like bitinstant.com.  I have used them and they are fast. 

 

Yeah I thought that but it turns out you have to get the game (25mb download plus social stigma ;), then go to one of the VirWox ATMs in the game and pay the atm to deposit into your VirWox account that can then convert to BTC.

Oh I see.  Even more convoluted.
