I've been in contact with that group. I think its the easiest way to go. Granted, you are going to pay, like you said, a 6-7 percent on each transaction. If I ever had to buy btc's that is exactly how I would have done it. Selling btc's is just as smooth, but the bad thing is that you don't know what hes going to sell at.Last I checked, his sell page is down due to the mt.gox fiasco. so, you have to xfer the btc's and then he sells, which could mean a lot of difference. I asked him about being able to set a minimum that I would accept and he never got back with me. Other than that one question, he was always very responsive to my questions. But, buying? heck yea, this is the place to go....
