Atm or face to face when i finally buy some.

Isn't there a sizeable fee on ATM purchases? Maybe I'm remembering wrong, but I could have sworn I heard rates upwards of 10%, maybe even 20%, it's been a while. Never actually seen one of these.

Yeah, they're really expensive. You're right, you're paying one hell of a premium if you buy at an Bitcoin ATM! Also, many of those require you to leave your finger-/handprints and input all kinds of personal information and your ID
I don't think the premium that you pay is quite that high. Even if you leave your fingerprints at the ATM you can easily use a mixer to disassociate the coins you buy with your identity.

I use bank transfer to move money to Bitstamp, and buy bitcoin there.
It works well for me, the only problem is that you need to verify your ID first.

Most of my BTC is bought by Altcoin, on exchanges such as Cryptsy

I always had interacted with face to face transactions & exchange of BTC. More like exchange of service with the other party or taking some assistance.  Cool

I use both BTC-e and localbitcoins.
BTC-e when I want to get bitcoin at a cheaper price, localbitcoins when I need the coin ASAP. Smiley

How do I get fiat to buy Bitcoin?  Roll Eyes

The easiest way is to earn fiat IMHO is to get a job (full time, part time or freelance) Smiley

I'm surprised, but also a bit proud! There aren't as many people around here who say 'Mt. Gox'! Smiley
I like Bitstamp

One easy way I've used is debit card >> becharge >> UKash >> Btc-e >> BTC

Probably not the cheapest method (when you add in fees) but still fairly straight forward.

Two ways:

1. I mine altcoins (mostly ltc), then transfer it to btc-e and convert it to btc.
2. Coinbase

Btc-e is a decent exchange for buying bitcoin and other alt currencies, failing that localbitcoins is a sure bet.
