Hey, I have a CoinBase account however I need to purchase some bitcoints in the next day or two... Because my account is under 10 days old they wont let me make a purchase without waiting for my bank to clear.

Is there a Website more instant that takes a credit card?

I believe I read coinbase will allow instant transactions.  You have to complete some additional verification steps.  Verify credit card,and address I believe.

Credit card will be tough, generally. If you have cash and/or can do bank teller deposit/bank transfer/bank wire, check out the currency exchange subforum here or localbitcoins.

Others are correct, LocalBitcoins could be easier in this case, but I was able to make a purchase from Coinbase almost immediately, at the current price, although the delivery time is still much later. I don't know if it had something to do with my situation or bank account type, but all I did was choose the instant approval option, then placed my order.

Coinbase purchases always lock in the present rate (once I saw this want the case but they made that very clear prior to my purchase).  This is true even if it takes 7 days to receive the coins (ie won't be able to sell till them). I've had good experiences overall with them.
