Buy Bitcoins with Euro

[Traherne]

Hi,


what is the best way to buy bitcoins with Euro?  (I live in Germany and only have a german bank account.) Is Mt Cox a good/ the best way?

Although, I guess that this question might have already been asked, as I couldn't find a satisfiyin, up-to-date answer  , I want to raise it here.

Thanks for answers!

Mt Gox accepts sepa bank transfers, so it should be easy for you to get bitcoins that way using your bank account.

Yes, I'd recommend to go with Mt Gox - you can simply use a SEPA transaction without any fees. Keep in mind that your money will be converted to USD automatically though. Mt Gox charges 0.65% when you actually buy bitcoins but it is the largest market at the moment so probably your best bet for now.
On the other hand I would not really advise you to sell bitcoins at Mt Gox if you want to have EUR because there's a 2% fee.

Another option is https://bitmarket.eu/

Although, it seems they have low volume.

http://bitmarket.eu is really great because:

- You don't have to send the money to an account first, you can buy immediately
- There's no fee involved at all.

OK. Thanks. I just registered on Bitmarket.eu and I hope the verification process works so that I can buy some bitcoins!

Bitmarket.eu is a good site, but the exchange rate is usually slightly worse (for a buyer) than Mt. Gox.

How long does it usually take until your status is verified on bitmarket.eu? I have never bought bitcoins before so I hope it works.

They have some trouble with the email verification process. Don't worry :-)

Google apps didn't like the amount of verification emails we have been processing per day - however, it seems to be sorted now. Sorry about the slightly longer delay than usual.
