No, you just get .22222222BTC for $100.
Or pay $450 for 1 whole BTC

Definately double check this. You don't want to overpay more than 4 times for sure. Can you see what you are exactly buying? The amount I mean. Maybe the 450 is indeed the price per bitcoin, but you are only buying part of that. Should show up somewhere on your screen. What website are you using for the purchase?

Looks like a shitty trader. Can you buy from somewhere else? Just buy $100 of btc. Usually there is no need to buy more than you actually need.

Well, I have opened a localbitcoin account and have a wallet--but how can I fill it with $100 without first buying?
It doesn't say if the price is for 1 full bitcoin--but all the traders are reading similar prices.

Deposit money in your localbitcoins account using either bank deposit or credit card transfer.

So you are suspicious of Bitcoin because you are ignorant and do not know how to use it? This makes perfect sense. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif) No, you just get .22222222BTC for $100.

I prefer exchanges such as Bitstamp. Have you tried one of those?

Deposit money in your localbitcoins account using either bank deposit or credit card transfer. How do I do that? I have an address in my wallet. How do I make a credit card payment to my bitcoin account? I will try him. Yes, I am ignorant of bitcoin--and suspicious of everything online until I know it is trustworthy.

If you are suspicious of everything, it's best to do some research first before spending that $100 I would advice you to do some more research about bitcoin and how it works.

My friend, I suggest you use more credible services, like CCex or similar exchange to buy your BTC. You can use your debit card there to buy coins and this way s much more safe and secure then buying on localbitcoins, which is basically a flee market for BTC.
There are other secure options like Circle or Coinbase.
Take good care of your money.

If you can offer any other method of payment(irreversible), you'll get many sellers around here.
