Title: FASTER way to get bitcoins other than coinbase?
Post by: spaceshit on October 02, 2013, 07:53 am
Hey guys, I've recently been using coinbase due to bitinstant closing down and I was wondering if any of you had any input on any other sights that might help me obtain bitcoins faster. It's always a pain when I miss out on a listing that I'm really interested in because my funds are pending. Yeah coinbase gives you the privilege of purchasing coins right there and you get them instantly, but what's killing me is the 5 day wait for your funds to arrive in my coinbase account.

While SR does have a built-in "tumbling" service. I am skeptical of giving coinbase personal info, atleast to get verified and bump limits asap. 

I have had good luck with localbitcoins.com , It can take a bit to get used to or seem really expensive, but if you post an offer of say 500$ ReloadIt card at bitstamp+9% you'll get seller's messaging you and you can save up to 30$ per BtC. 

Also, I've had success with direct bank deposit. It's been super fast with generally some of the lowest fees.  localbitcoins.com also gets my nod for having a very good escrow system.

use coinking  for 1000 he charges 5% and uses the SR rate which is much lower than the mtgox rate most people use.  He puts the co8ns right inro your SR account.  tell him i sent you,  he might even do better.  thanks AW

Greetings,

I'd like to work with you going forward and I can offer a great rate, very easy transitions with btc, and be your trusted provider. I deal with either WU(more fees involved), or cash deposits at either Regions, BB&T, or Chase account. All you need to do is post a cash deposit to the account I provide via email, email me your deposit receipt, and I'll send coins very quickly! We can arrange a good time so that as soon as you send me the deposit receipt, I'll be standing by and will send the coins at that very price of btc of the receipt. I am a vendor and am looking to help my fellow bitcoin aficionados achieve their needs and wants long term!! I also am taking moneypak at this time.
I am a professional and have been dealing personally and professionally in btc for a while now.

Hit me up via email if you'd like to work together: libertycoin@sefe-mail.net pr on my vendor account. Just a heads up, I might get the email quicker, as SR seems as though its always down momentarily throughout the day.

Look forward to it!

Bitcoins allow people to obtain drugs from the comfort of their own home.
SR is often smoother and somehow cheaper than the back street.
Bitcoins are not, as far as I know, illegal to possess or exchange.

There is room for dealer profit and user savings.
Reduced risk for everyone.
BTC win. SR wins.

I know why olmate doesn't want to sell me bitcoins, but I also know some one or two less criminal types who could probably make a good bit for themselves.
