I'm looking to buy a bitcoin miner (mostly for fun). I can't seem to figure out how to convert cash into bitcoin (yes, I have a wallet and am already part of Slush's pool). Could someone please help me with this? I was thinking about getting the Antminer S5 or an S4 if I can find a deal. Thanks guys.

you could try coinbase.com, they sell bitcoins but take a week to confirm payment on the coins. Also if interested bitfinex and bitstamp do bitcoin transactions as well as cryptsy. if you are interested in looking at prices for most companies, these aren't with service fees the company may charge. https://bitcoinwisdom.com/ |

For creditcard/debit card, circle its the best way to go, there's a limit on withdrawing $1000 usd / week and buying $500 usd per week If you want to buy with cash you can try localbitcoins or currency exchange area, there are several people that are willing to sell bitcoin for skrill, neteller, etc.. Do not forget to try the btc-e exchange |

localbitcoin should do the trick, or find someone locally in your zone

Another option, although fees can be steep is virwox. They charge between 0.30-0.50 + 3.5% depending on your currency. You will also spend some money converting from USD (or your currency) to BTC. They have daily/monthly withdraw limits as well.

I also recommend them.  If you're not from the US, you could also ask in your country's sub forum. That's how I found coins.ph.  Most convenient for people in the Philippines. |

VirWox is the only place with credit card, but they charge too much. With cash - localbitcoins is best for you. |
Out of shape with big p*nis is better than muscular with tiny pecker. |

I personally like Local bitcoin because you can get the bitcoin quickly and you don't need all this info and credit cards. Putting all that info into another gox 2.0 scares me.

Circle, Coinbase if you are in the US
localbitcoins is another option
coin.mx is a site that lets you use credit card. Limits at a few hundred but has generally been reliable.

Anyone know if it's charged as a purchase or cash advance? |

virwox is nice too. But taking the cost is too high. |

You can buy/sell bitcoin with payza easily and to deposit in payza account is very easy from many parts of the world. Other wise with physical cash yo can buy directly from some person of your area.
