Unless Bitinstant gets their shit together this will be my new method for getting coin. It works a lot like get-bitcoin used to, make a deposit at Chase and then email them a picture of your receipt (be sure to scrub the exif data for extra security)
Their terms say to wait a day for payment to arrive, which I was fully prepared to do. To my amazement the funds arrived in my account all of 10 minutes after sending the picture.
Overall I'm very pleased with how it went, quick easy and if you register with a tormail address, totally anonymous. No answering a bunch of questions or showing ID necessary.
Breathing a sigh of relief here, I haven't made an order in months, time to stock up for the holidays. Ho ho ho ;D

Something I'm confused about here is how you turn your cash into bitcoins. Do you just put in a buy order and hope for the best? It seems like this takes quite a long time, which kind of sucks, but the process of getting funds into the system is relatively painless.

Thanks for the useful information, blackend646.

I've used them 2x so far and has been easy/smooth both times. Good site, except that btc are becoming so expensive now...
