I have always purchased my bitcoin from localbitcoins using the anonymous bank deposit option, but I've recently started a new job working 9-5 so this is no longer an option as the bank will be closed after I'm off.
I would very much appreciate any method you consider best/safest barring a bank deposit, as that seems to be the preferred method from most users.
Thanks!
LibertyX is so easy and the fees are significantly lower than LBC.
