Hello,
I'm still new here and still figuring out how to buy Bitcoins. Moneypak is not available in my country so my only way to pay now is either Paypal or bank transfer. So if there's anyone who sells Bitcoins via bank transfer or Paypal please let me know. Thanks. :)

MtGox will take incoming bank wires. And if you are in the USA, they take Dwolla, which in turn can be linked to your bank like PayPal.

Thanks. Do you know how long MtGox takes to add the Bitcoins to your account after you make the transfer? I'm looking for something instant, so I don't want to wait for days.

As you must know, MtGox is an exchange. So, you have to place an order to buy BTC after the cash has been transferred. The trade itself is executed very fast, maybe a couple of minutes. That is, if you are buying that the market price. Just so you know, they charge 0.6% transaction fee.

I don't think you'll find anyone wiling to take PayPal. It's too easy to screw with the payments. The least expensive and safest way is to do a bank transfer to MtGot, Tradehill, or a similar service.

Thank you for the info! Mt.Gox sounds exactly like what I need. Just signed up there and going to make the exchange soon.

Well my bank said it'll take a couple of days to add and activate the beneficiary, and there's a listing that won't wait. Anyone willing to trade $20 Ukash?
