I currently use Mt Gox for most of my trades, but I'll give Bitstamp a try 
.
(I hope "junior" means "you can post on the exchange forum").
And on a side note... wow difficulty increase = BTC vs USD increase (in BTC's favour).
Thanks for the advice guys . I'll post an ad on the exchange forum.
Try to use Bitstamp, BUT NEVER use Mt.Gox (for selling).

You can post in the currency exchange subforum -- you may find interest there. Good luck!
I'm a junior member now - I couldn't do that previously (I hope "junior" means "you can post on the exchange forum").Lets just say its not worth the complication. You can get bitcoins in a day or two, but with mt. gox and its fees, its all living hell!
Mt Gox seems to be fine as a trading platform... I've really mostly used it for trading; ie. I deposit BTC and then periodically withdraw BTC. It's mostly BTC I've mined myself but I sometimes buy through VirWox which amazingly still works out cheaper than using sellers on localbitcoins.com lol, even though it's a credit card transaction - through PayPal.And on a side note... wow difficulty increase = BTC vs USD increase (in BTC's favour).

Is Mt Gox really that bad? I know there have been issues with withdrawals, but haven't they been due to other banks they deal with?
I have no funds with them myself, btw.

Hi
I'm South African and I'm looking for other South Africans that have bitcoins to sell.
Assuming a rate of $200 USD per btc, I'm looking to buy between 50 and 200 btc per month starting from (and including) December 2013.
Hopefully when I've become more established I'll be able to move this topic into the correct section.
And as a general introduction : I started mining Bitcoins via Slush's pool with an OC'ed ATI GPU in June 2012. I have found 2 blocks; 200279 and 216293. I'm now mining with a BFL 30GHash/sec unit and a DE0-Nano FPGA (lol), both using BFGMiner on a Raspberry Pi.
Thanks
