I have tried VPN, but when the exchange needs to verify mi ID it all goes to hell.
Obviously they have identification requests to prevent money laundering, tax fraud and whatnot.
The high trusted sellers from LBC charge way too much, same price as CEXIO and some even more expensive, decent price sellers are not so trustable.
LBC rates are normal for buying on such a market. Obviously they are going to be different than buying from a exchange directly. Otherwise, why would anyone be doing high volume trading there? To trade at a loss?
What payment options are you planning on? International bank transfer? You may be able to find someone here willing to sell some Bitcoin to you, but be wary of scammers. Use escrow.
