Im assuming you mean with cash, as you can always wire money to an exchanger anywhere in the world. I'd like to know this myself as all 4 of the cash deposit businesses (bluesky traders, bitcopia, cryptocurrent, and bitfloor) all use either bank of america or wells fargo. Is the US the only place to purchase BTC with cash?

Beat me to it, Pluto!

Also, go to the security section and there is a thread on a guy called BTCUKX or something. Everyone seems real happy using him.  :)

if you have a uk bank account, debit card, smart phone and pingit app you can buy coins at blockchain.info then transfer straight to sr.

I've used TransferWise to transfer Euro to BitStamp.

Not exactly the fastest approach.

From there I got some anonymity into my coins by transferring and tumbling them, i.e. instawallet (created over Tor) > instawallet  (created over Tor)  > BitFog (tumbles them at 1-3%) > SR

Overkill, slow, but low on fees and a trustworthy path of service providers start to finish.

I've signed up to PingIt to speed the next purchase up a bit more.
