I made my mtgox account and they need ID verification . After that they will confirm my account within 10 days. After that I need to make bank transfer which may take up to 5 days for the money to appear in my acc.
Then I can exchange for some BTC . Is that correct ?
If so ... isnt there an option to buy BTC with Debit or Moneybookers ?
Also Ive tried to search for a local buyer the closest I found was 600km away from me . So this thing doesnt work for me . Anything else I am missing , like some nice website that offer debit/moneybookers/paypal payment ?
Thanks for your kind answers!

Depending on your area you can just mail cash to someone in exchange for BTC, with the proper precautions taken of course. I did that, and christ, it's been so much easier.

the thing is that in my country , there are few people that dealing with BTC . And I am struggling to find someone who is willing to sell me some . Anyways I will still try to look for someone but doesnt expect positive result atleast not soon .
Sorry for typos , lingo errors etc. , English is not my strongest skill .

What I've been using that works well is blockchain.info. They will give you a wallet and the option to make a payment through BitInstant, which allows you to create a payment slip for a merchant(Zip Zap Inc. is mine) to take to moneygram at Wal-mart. At wally world, you just fill out a blue form with the information from your payment slip and within an hour or so, your money will be in your wallet ready to transfer to SR. *Note-I made a deposit on Monday for around $750 USD, and BitInstant is taking there sweet time processing it. Will update if there are any issues unresolved. I have used them 6 times previously and not had a problem till I did a larger amount. Will update*
