Title: Best site to buy bitcoins? Post by: Warwick on April 17, 2013, 08:29:11 PM I was just hoping to get this communitys opinion on what sites are the best to purchase bitcoin from - please give the site and the reasoning behind why you like it and your experience with it if possible. Thank you!

As posted before I used VirWox and was very happy with. Downside there is for sure, that you first have to change it in Linden Dollar. But you can use paysafecard, Ukash and Paypal, so I think the higher fees are worth it.

Title: Re: Best site to buy bitcoins? Post by: stimpi on April 17, 2013, 08:43:34 PM It entirely depends on where in the world you are buying them and how you can pay.
I used to use Pingit on Blockchain but Barclays pulled the service on them. Title: Re: Best site to buy bitcoins? Post by: MysterEee on April 17, 2013, 08:50:07 PM I just bought my first BitCoins and I used BitInstant so that I could pay cash. I guess I wasn't too sure if I wanted any of these services to have my bank info.
Title: Re: Best site to buy bitcoins? Post by: savemydinner on April 17, 2013, 08:57:06 PM I've bought BTC and LTC on btc-e.com
Works very fast! Title: Re: Best site to buy bitcoins? Post by: *Bob on April 17, 2013, 09:29:44 PM Has anybody been able to purchase using Coinbase yet?
I've never seen that site with bitcoin availability. Title: Re: Best site to buy bitcoins? Post by: hstlmn on April 17, 2013, 09:40:51 PM For sure it depends on what payment methods you can use.

But you can use paysafecard, Ukash and Paypal, so I think the higher fees are worth it. the only thing that sucked with them is that I had to wait almost 36 hours to have my bitcoins processed. In that time they dropped to lower numbers and it semi bothered me. Title: Re: Best site to buy bitcoins? Post by: zonkism on April 17, 2013, 09:45:57 PM I have had good experiences with CampBX. They do not get as much volume as mt. Gox but I have not had any issues getting USD or BTC in or out. Plus they use Dwolla so that makes it real easy...
Title: Re: Best site to buy bitcoins? Post by: daglitch on April 17, 2013, 10:09:55 PM Would have to say got with BTC-e. Even though they don't have many options for deposit, can't say that I have ever had a problem with them.
Title: Re: Best site to buy bitcoins? Post by: snaps77 on April 17, 2013, 10:12:04 PM So far I've only used Bitstamp, but I've had no issues with them yet.
Title: Re: Best site to buy bitcoins? Post by: bbit on April 17, 2013, 10:26:43 PM You can buy bitcoins through reddit $1, $5, $10 amounts. (or at least its coming )

Post by: mattmcegg on April 18, 2013, 06:47:42 AM https://localbitcoins.com/ - deal with people directly
Title: Re: Best site to buy bitcoins? Post by: Buddytronic on April 18, 2013, 07:04:10 AM cavirtex.com is probably the best in Canada.
Title: Re: Best site to buy bitcoins? Post by: Dougie on April 18, 2013, 07:08:54 AM It entirely depends on location. If you are in the UK it is difficult which I'm assuming based on your name. I use OK pay (you can convert directly to bitcoins). It has the lowest fees in my experience but it takes a while to get verified.
Otherwise virwox is good. Converting back is pretty hard though! Being European or American really helps with bitcoin trading! Title: Re: Best site to buy bitcoins? Post by: Tucker on April 18, 2013, 07:14:08 AM Not mtgox stop giving them business
