Bitcoin-24.com is operated by germans, but actually uses a polish bank account (the same as MtGox), shouldn't be a problem to wire from a US bank account.
Bitcoin.de seems to also support LibertyReserve.

Thanks for the suggestions but I refuse to send in my photo ID due to security issues.  Im not anywhere near being a criminal but rather value freedom and privacy above all else.  Also there seems to be a daily limit much like coinbase.  I hate coinbase!!  Tried purchasing btc over 20X's spread over 5 days and i cant buy any from coinbase since they keep reaching their max daily limit.  What a bunch of non sense.  
Not sure what you're talking about,
at least on Bitcoin-24.com you don't need to send your photo ID or anything and I'm not aware of small daily limts.
Not sure about Bitcoin.de though, I'm not using that one myself.

What about using bitcoin.de or bitcoin 24 . Com

Wow!  That was fast!  Does one need to be a German citizen with a German bank account?  Because I only have a US based bank account. Taking money out of ATM's are easy but buying bitcoins is such a hassle!!  LOL

Hi all,


Just some background info.  I managed to buy only 10 bitcoins a few weeks ago on coinbase and now they keep running into daily limits and cant sell me any only to watch the price of bitcoin skyrocket.  Anyhow, what do you guys reccomend as the easiest way to buy bitcoin here near Germany/FrankFurt main HBF?  Are there any other ways to do it safely online?  I read and read and read but still cant seem to purchase any.  Im a US citizen here in Germany.  Please advise...danke shun!

BTW:  Im price sensitive to huge fees.  Trying to purchase $1,000 at a time, danke shun in advance...
