Coinbase and Circle are 10 dollars cheaper than that exchange.

Hey there,

I have a decent list of quick methods to acquire crypto currencies going here http://yocrypto.ca/crypto-currency-essentials/buy-sell-and-exchange-crypto-currency/. You can go the exchange route or a third party selling service usually more expensive but quick, Circle is super good and fast for USA (I'm in canada, they let me buy Bitcoin with my account in two seconds, but not cash back out), Trucoin also seems great and quick everywhere but Canada, and Cavirtex is what i use to exchange back into CAD.

The OP makes a good point... there are tons of tutorials on YouTube etc but most of them get too technical too soon and don't explain the basics of where to buy btc.
If you're going to make a 101 vid please stay away from trying to explain mining or the block chain right away.... as soon as you hear things like "complex algorithms" you've lost their interest.... start with the benefits and reasons... but please show where they can buy coins the easy way... isn't that the whole point of educating folks to actually get them into the game?

Completely agree. Once you get into the Bitcoin game it's easy to forget all the breadcrumbs that got you there.  Really takes a lot of digging around to learn everything.

Coinbase is the way to go.  I've been using it for a few months now but I have found it to be super easy to use.

I personally prefer to do transactions with people on forums because I mostly find the rates that I want to trade with ;D
what are the coinbase rates btw 1:1 ?

You can purchase with any major credit card on coin.mx? or is it only pre-paid credit cards you can use?

Thanks for the link :) I'm gonna look into the Circle one because I am also in Canada and usually have problems finding a quick cheaper way to purchase my BTC :) Appreciate that mate :) Cheers

OOoo awesome, NP at all! Yeah circles great, and defiantly try checkouts with CAvirtex, CAD exchange. The setup takes a day or so, they send 2 small deposits to confirm bank ACCT
