What experience do you guys have with Localbitcoin. I've been using a local bitcoin dealer forever, along with bitinstant. I'd like to try out their service.
What trouble have you run into?
How safe is Escrow through their site?
What are alternative websites to Localbitcoin?

ive had good success with it so far. It is nice because they dont make you attach a name or anything. I havent meant anyone in person yet only the cash deposit which has been easy for me to do so far. The exchange rates can be high sometimes, but oyu just have to search for the good ones

Its fucking useless in Australia cunts charge too much and dont respond quickly

I met a guy through LBTC who doesn't even sell through the site. Since he doesn't sell through the site, he takes less commission. Cool guy, I've only used him once but I've refered some friends to him who have each used him a couple of times. Planning on meeting him again soon. He's the only person I've ever purchased bitcoins from.

I've only had good experiences on LBTC, and often I've purchased at a lower rate than SR converts to, so it's been a win-win.
