I would suggest going to circle.com and buying from them. circle is much better equipped to prevent fraud then the average user here (they are able to achieve an economy of scale).
Anything you buy with a credit card can potentially be reversed within ~6 months (or sometimes more).
I believe that cex.io also accepts funding by credit cards however I am not sure how liquid their market is
Just checked them out.
They say it goes as a cash advance so I really was hoping not to have to do that because of the crazy fees and interest.
Checked out cex.io too. My card is a Discover and they only take Mastecsrd and visa. I'm going to check with them about whether I can buy Visa gift cards and use them for purchase of BTC
Thanks for the info
Do they? I use it occasionally with my card and it shows up as Online, Mail, or Telephone transaction. I even get points for it.
It's still not practical for $500-$1000 because of $100 weekly limit but not sure where info is regarding cash advance.
