Localbitcoins.com
The other day I placed a trade, made the cash deposit at BOA and 5 minutes later had the btc in my wallet there. Moved it through a few different wallets and was on SR within an hour and my orders placed.
There will be a decent premium depending on who you use. I think I wound up paying like $4 over market price per btc but with the fees that other avenues charge it worked out to about the same, plus it was done with the quickness and the seller had awesome communication. HTH

To help out newbs, I wrote up two methods for buying bitcoins and anonymously moving them to the Road.
You do not have to order the guide; the information is contained directly in the listing itself, which is at:
http://silkroadvb5piz3r.onion/silkroad/item/2f9f85aa35
The reason I'm posting the info in my listing rather than here in the forums is that methods of obtaining
bitcoins change from day-to-day.
The guide is designed for buyers, not vendors, and it assumes no previous knowledge or computer skill.
I've used the procedures outlined in this guide--in the USA--many times with no problems.
Peace,
