Post by: orbitalics on February 18, 2012, 10:29 pm
Hello. I am looking for someone reputable who is able to do a $900 to bitcoins.
The purchase I am looking to make is $850 so I would only be able to do $50 as a charge.

Who is able to do this? What method is the best?
I have $900 cash on me.

Why? I am doing the research and should come up with a good way to do it.
Also, this community is good enough to let someone know who is a scammer and who is not.

Thanks?

I can exchange that for product once you have bitcoins.  Every bit-cent.

I know, I know, I shouldn't have... but seriously, I insist ;)

If you go about it like this your going to get scammed.  Purchasing your bitcoins on SR outside of Escrow is crazy.  The honest ones charge you 10 - 20 percent for the exchange.  It's expensive and risky.  Get an account at MtGox and buy 'em the right way.  The cost is less than 1 percent and there is literally no risk of being scammed.  Just make sure that you don't access MtGox through TOR.

Bitinstant is your best bet, you need a mtgox account, but with bitinstant you can deposit cash at any bank of america without providing id or your name and deposit cash and within hours they will provide you a mtgox redeem code for the value of your deposit less %4 and I think there is a deposit fee thats relatively minimal too (less than an atm surcharge) so you get cash credit in mtgox so you don't have to worry about bitcoin volatility until you need them

This is probably one of the best ways to do it if your in the US.
