How did you bypass the mandatory newbie jail?
The rate is market driven so it fluctuates, and it is going to get bigger. So not a bad Idea to get approved on Gox as you can sometimes make an instant profit.
That said Gox. Has its problems I suspect people trying to get money out are buying on Gox and selling on other exchanges (you can't stop Bitcoin but you can stop Fiat)
See:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=272418.0 for info of CAvirtex.
All in all, keep your Bitcoin's safe, given all the history of lost/stolen coin, I prefer to manage my own coins, and only keep coins on an exchange long enough to sell them.
Also if you hunt around the net you can find there are at least 2 Bitcoin meetups almost every month in Vancouver, you can buy face to face. (I think Vertex is still a more cost effective option right now.)
All you need is one post to get out of newbie jail!
Hearing about the issues on Gox has thrown me away from that site. I am going through the process of approval on the CaVirtex site. As well getting a new bank account so my other funds don't get tampered with.
