I need a website to buy btc with the following requirement:
1. buy instant: not like coinbase, you just have certain limit instant buy
2. no buying limit: same
3. transfer instant or relatively fast
4. accept paypal or ACH from US bank
5. fees or commissions are reasonable

i've tried some but they are not all good, can someone recommend any?

I would say, answer depends with your Country of origin, each Country with active Bitcoin users have their own exchange site, it's much better if you transact with them so that if there's any trouble, you know where to reach them.

I find localbitcoins quite fast and also secure in terms of getting scammed but only buy with trusted members. But if you are from usa better search some trusted member in currency exchange area of this forum.

Haven't there been robberies of people using local bitcoins? I wouldn't trust it unless you meet in a public place and bring people with you.

Is your aversion to Coinbase just because you don't like the know your customer requirements on principle or do you have legit reasons for keeping your identity anonymous?

Good luck!

Why not stay with some of the more trusted parties. You know you won't be scammed. For that privillige you are pay some extra in fees etc. But at least you got value for your money.
If you are not willing to do that, accept the fees/commision on localbitcoins...

I like Circle, it does have a low limit to start $300 a week, but they will raise it after some time.

The best website would be bitstamp or Kraken. LocalBitcoin is also very nice and simple to use and is probably the simplest way to get it done besides BTC ATMs

I always use reliable exchanges like kraken or bitfinex.

I have never heard about Igot.com but the site and contact information seem to be ok. Yet the lesson i have learned with bitcoin, don't use this sites unless you have (f.e. when you are at gunpoint).

Localbitcoins is ok, but like you stated many, many fees.

The price is depending on the buyer you are willing to deal with.
Try to search for low price sellers with very good reputation

I use kraken always, but there are plenty of reliable parties you can use.
Always pick a larger party they are most likely to be honest and won't scam you.

Good luck!

I don't think Paypal will ever be a good idea if you want low fees. Have you tried Circle? That's the next biggest next to Coinbase. There are also US exchanges like Gemini and Itbit now that accept ACH depending on which state you're in. You'll get the market price.

I prefer coinbase but it's up to you to choose, they have some fee + bank fee, another exchange can be bitfinex as others recommended it.

With those payment options you are considering it would probably be best to check out LocalBitcoins. Or you can try out Bitwa.la. It seems they allow you to buy and sell btc with PayPal

Please use it first before your opinion.

Nice one, encouraging other users to put their coins into your scam site? Scumbag, people like you should be nuked, too bad scamming is allowed here though...  Tongue
