Feedback on best BTC to USD cashout method(s)?

[JeRM]

So I was just getting more into the BTC scene after realizing if I would have invested in BTC my coins would be worth $98,224 right now and thats if I didnt sell or invest in more along the way.

What are some of your preferred websites to use in buying/trading/selling business? I'm learning from an older thread that Mt.Gox is ridiculous when it comes to trying to cashout in USD. From the 2012 thread it was stated that sure they may be fine with selling BTC back but the cashing out is where they fall through.....is this still the case?

I want to invest a decent amount of money in BTC still but I just want to see what some feedback would be on the best way to cashout when ready. Fees and waiting time seem to be ridiculous with Mt.Gox but then I haven't had time to discover much else...believe Bitinstant was regarded as a good place.

Thanks for any feedback on the topic

Bump.

I thinking about cashing a little bit out because of IRL issues.

For a very small amount, is it a big pain to get gox to send you a check or an ACH?
