Mtgox prices are higher due to difficulties to withdraw dollars there, so Bitstamp gives a better idea of the Bitcoin market price.
Localbitcoin price may be higher than on bitstamp depending on how many sellers are at your location.
Btc-E has kinda low prices, because (afaik) it's difficult to get dollars into there.

Awesome guys, thanks for the advise. I will try to talk to the guy about pricing and see we can reach a middle ground. I will look over btce and check their market data for the past week or so.

I have been looking at bitcoins and I was wondering which market should I use to get an idea on how much the bitcoin is really worth? Mt. Gox, bitstamp, btce, or campbx? thanks guys for the help. I personally think bitstamp is more stable, but you guys are the experts.
