OMFG mtgox is 100 more than btc-e. why aren't you guys buying on btc-e and selling on mtgox?

I would be, but I have been waiting for 3 months for mtgox to approve my account......
btc-e approved it in 1 day....

If anyone that has trust enough wants to sell for me at mtgox I'm game. i need a mtgox account!!! we will need to discuss the details

Yep I'm sure it is, but why not explain what you mean.

You couldn't buy the BTC at btc-e and sell it for $100 more at mtgox?

It's difficult and risky to do arbitrage with MtGox, due to withdrawal delays, see the last page of this thread:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=179586.2960

Sometimes, if it looks too bullish, it's actually bearish

You will never get any money from gox...its always at least 100 more than other exchanges. You cant even get an account approved...

Your right about the account approvals. How are they staying an active website with no approvals. I have been waiting for three months for my account approval. Does anyone know why they are taking so long?

So you can't even withdraw USD? So they just keep all money, BTC..etc forever? Are they off shore?

Why do you think they are 100$ more?

You unfortunately don't know what you are doing ..... the reason for the price difference is you can't actually withdraw USD from Gox, hence the price is not in any meaningful way "real"

OMG, you might care to read some of the twice daily threads about Gox prices being so fantastic before thinking about getting rich that way Smiley

look, its that thread again.

yes there is a price differential (better to be measured in%tage terms than absolute dollars).
as stated above, it occurs because of the difficulty to move fiat around, especially with Gox involved.

You need to wait for weeks for ID verification, but that is just the beginning. Tongue

Just as the above persons mentioned, there is a terrible delay for USD withdrawal from mtgox.
People have been waiting for months to get the USD.

Why would someone arbitrage from MtGox since the withdrawals can take months?

Think about it?  Why wouldn't we ALL do this if it were possible?  You think you found a "secret" none of us knew? Wink

The only thing you can do on Mt Gox is buy bitcoin and transfer bitcoin to another wallet address.  US withdrawals, people saying months, I'm saying never, basically.  SEPA/Euro withdrawals are now months. 

So why price higher?  Because no point in selling Bitcoin on Gox since you can't do anything with the $ once its sold.

wow, thanks for the info guys. I'm new to BTC so yep it had me stumped. I never saw the threads talking about it.

I just figured why in HELL would people buy BTC there since it's 100$ more and second question why would people use it if you can't withdraw.
Then yet another question..... why haven't people sued yet?

Why doesn't MT.GOX just die?

It's dying.
This is the reason why anybody wants to pay $100 more for BTC there: there are no other ways to withdraw funds.

Copper is only 0.22 USD per troy ounce!  Why aren't you guys buying it, turning it into gold, and selling it?

I can buy copper and sell gold.  Can an alchemist PM me so we can go into business together?

Sorry, you've lost me.  If you can turn your shit into gold, why are you so interested in the potential arbitrage opportunity presented by MtGox?
