Well, look up about 5 or 6 posts to the one that says "Attention all new members - please read this before posting".  There is a reason it's there.

let me guess

you didnt read the new member thread at the very top

or the thread that says read this before posting

or the buyers guide

or the wiki

or the looked around in the rumor mill

or security

or tried using the search function, say to search for how to buy bitcoins


*and dont trust the score on SR - vendors can leave falsified feedback

i suggest you spend about two weeks reading everything you can find on the forum before starting to ask questions or trying to order


It is confusing at first.  Feel free to PM me if you are still having trouble.

Welcome....:)

GERMAN CUSTOMERS:

check out localbitcoins.com
find a dealer in your area and contact him. you can meet them or send cash per mail.
then buy bitcoins with cash(!). private to private.
