Not really, now I missed the group buy I was going into, so now it might be another whole month added on my waiting time before I
get my avalon chips
Bitcoin is 24/7, banks are 8/5. I'll have problems trying to sort out a bitcoin buy during weekend, so I might as well
attempt to do an international wire to mtgox and get my bitcoins there.
Using wire transfer with some guy off local bitcoins I'd have to start small anyway, unless the guy was a reputable seller.
So there doesn't really seem to be any options right now but to wait. Not that I'm in a hurry anymore either
