I'm planning my first bitcoin purchase and would be interested to hear what methods have or haven't worked for others for an initial purchase. Did it go smoothly? What problems/obstacles came up? Have you tried other methods since, or stuck to the one you started with?

You should add an additional option to the poll: I mined it.

Then used it to buy PCI-E x1-x1 risers.

I first used bitbargain.co.uk, then I passed to bitstamp.net which is way better due to lower fees.

originally planning to fund MtGox and buy from them, but too much procedure and time need for International TT, so switch to local dealer, then bought and use it already today Cheesy

The first BTC I bought I got from the Bitcoin.de exchange via SEPA transaction. The SEPA transaction took 4 days, which effectively cost me money because by that time the price had dropped dramatically nad has not yet reached that level again.

This was the point at which I decided to try and keep everything in Bitcoin. Unless the little amount I have becomes super valuable I won't cash it out but rather try to pay things with it directly.

MOD EDIT:
See https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/probable-malicious-site-bitcoin-addressorg-218040 as this site is probably a scam

I have now 50 Bitcoins and I made it this way. Registered at MtGox.com and verified my account. That needed 2 weeks and i had to upload my id. After that I made a bank transfer to Mtgox.com, you get all informations to which bank account at their site. Than I bought some Bitcoins and made a new Bitcoin Address at www.bitcoin-address.org. After that I sent my bitcoins to this address and printed it as a paperwallet, this function is at bitcoin-address.org too. Then I put my paper in my safe and now I am waiting for high prices, then I want to sell. Thats it. Good luck!
