Coinbase Vs Mt.Gox

I was having problems today trying to sell. It was like back in the old days. I got a message saying they researched their limit and I had to wait 24 hours to try and sell

I'm surprised.  I would think they have plenty of money right now and no coins.

Well they've been canceling my orders to buy Bitcoins...

Maybe they just have low liquidity in general.

I can sell on Coinbase for $251+.

It feels like there is a good potential to arb between Coinbase and Bitstamp. Do you know if Coinbase's sells take 7 days to confirm like their buys?

Yeah, because US banks suck.

All of mine (around $200/BTC days) have gone through so far.  The last one hit my bank credit union today so I think it's still on target.

ACH transfers post the next business day, the delay is so Coinbase can hedge their client's orders or try to match them inside their order book.

Cheers...

Damn, in that case I just have bad luck. I got mine for sub-$200 though (although maybe I won't if they cancel it ~.~)
