Best secure way to get € to a bank account?

[Grillmeister]

I'm already 6 weeks "confirmed" in the MTGox queue and there's still no end in sight.

Since my old car broke and I had to buy a new one, I need a way to get my money out.

What's the best way to get € to my bank account, other than MTGox?

That would depend on where about you are in the world! What country are you from?

Had the same problem - I was stuck with my EUR on MT GOX for several weeks.

My tip:

- Request a cancel of your withdraw with MT GOX (they do it asap)
- Buy Bitcoins
- Send them to an alternative exchange which deals in EUR (e.g. bitstamp, or bitcoin.de)
- Get your payout there

I know this sucks, because you have to pay fees again and there is a risk of price drop. But otherwhise it may happen that it takes another couple of weeks till you have you money.

Thanks, that sounds like a plan.

Does Bitcoin.de have the volume (about 3500€) to sell the BTC in a reasonable timeframe, though? How high are the fees for trading + transfering to my bank account?
