I want to buy a decent # of bitcoins (~5000).
I've been trying to jump through the various hoops to buy some bitcoins for about a week without much success. I opened a Dwolla account, but they restrict transfers from the bank to $5000. It took 48 hours just to verify my bank account with them. So I requested a transfer of $5000. Only after 24 hours did they say that I'm not really verified, and that they can't do it unless I upload a photo id. Not sure I want to jump through these hoops if there are going to be another ten steps which take me a month to take.
In order of priority, I want a way to buy that's
1) fast
2) private
3) low commission
What's the best way to do this?
Drive to McKinney, TX with a suitcase full of cash!
