I am having a hell of a time trying to purchase BCH directly for USD.

I have tried Etoro, Changelly, Bittrex, and a bunch of other exchanges and have the hardest time just purchasing BCH directly for USD. I am hoping to avoid purchasing another altcoin to trade for BCH to avoid the small % fees. I am running into issues because I am in the US.

Is there an exchange I can get BCH? I want to purchase it and send to my wallet. 

Feel like I am being dumb, but am running into issues left and right every time.

Thanks

Are you in the US? If yes, I think that option will only be available in Jan when Coinbase has BCH available. For now unfortunately the only option is buying another coin, then using shapeshift to get some BCH.. Which wallet do you use? Try bitcoin.com there might be an option to buy directly using a credit card.

I would not recommend buying BCash,its a wellcrafted scheme,Chinese/koreans dragon slayer failed to overthrow the king which is BTC,its a manipulated alt so stay away if you can but if you still want it well goodluck.

Unfortunately at the moment the only option to purchase a BCH is to buy bitcoin and then exchange it for the BCH.

Have you tried Yobit? Their site has really come up recently. I'm quite impressed.

Wait, wait, you said eToro? Are you right? Or it was just a Typo?

That is the worst thing that you can do, and probably you were not even paying attention when you tried to buy in there.

Etoro is a broker, and it works using CTF's, it means that there is no way to take those bitcoins or bitcoin cash'es from there, because they are fake, they just work as a virtual money that represents that asset.

I dont have to explain you how a broker works, but yes, probably the only thing that you can do in order to buy bitcoins is just coinbase.. But bitcoin cash, i dont know.

Maybe you should buy bitcoin first and then exchange it to bcash

No need to directly buy bch with usd, buy bitcoin or ethereum in coinbase with usd, after that you can buy any coin with either ethereum or bitcoin.
