For europeans bitcoin.de/en is very good, they charge a 1% fee when buying.

Mt Gox is good and BTC make it to my SR account in an hour or two.  When I purchase them for USD they appear almost instantly in MT GOX wallet.  The price of BTC is skyrocketing though man, fucking sux, I hope its just this 42o sale that is causing this and its not a permanent thing. was 4.95 and last I checked it is 5.15 and rising dam.  Wish I had gotten my shit together for the sale sooner fuck me

What difference does sky rocketing BTC rates make?  The prices are tied to USD.  Meaning if I posted something for 5btc today and the exchange rate double, the price would automatically drop to 2.5btc.

Yeah until they encounter some hardship (wrong key pressed, routines taking 3x longer than usual wtc blah blah blah!)

I had no end of problems with shitersango, who didn't like the views of someone with....how shall I put it....Inner workings of their business used as excuses against everything......dont matter!

Now mtgox while still wankers and charge more in my xp are twice as fast! 24 hous from uk bank deposit to btc isn't bad!!

I've been doing BitInstant cash deposit to MtGox, MtGox to fog/etc, to SR. Quickest I've received them in SR ready-to-use is 67 minutes. I was so pumped when I pulled that off! :D MtGox is simply the biggest and best. Honestly, their rates are really decent. The only time you could 'lose' money while obtaining BitCoins is if you left USD (or your own currency) in MtGox for a long time after cash deposit, enough for BTCs to go up .20 or more. I just see no reason to leave currency in MtGox, I always buy the BTCs ASAP.

The last time I did obtained BTCs I did everything from 2 (rooted Android) mobile devices, all torified when necessary, utilizing a variety of wi-fi hotspots and mobile connections. Took me about 2 hours to make my SR order after dropping cash anonymously at a bank while doing laundry the whole time. So much win!
