Most time I prefer localbitcoins.com because at times you could get for a price less than price quoted by exchanges because it has got lot many traders who have different price margins.

I also like localbitcoins and they are also the best with their dealers there, you can pick one out and they are also pretty secure if you are asking me.
Fee's are mostly also pretty low.

Thanks, looking in the forum now. It's a bit crazy over there at the currency exchange, gotta research "skrill" and other things they use over there, a bit daunting.

I personally use localbitcoins.com and have very good experience with this but some time I like to use btc-e also because its also very good for me with few good payment methods coinbase and xapo both never been good for me as both need ID verification for this buy and sell

I never used localbitcoins or coinbase for buy or sell my bitcoin. They have really awful rates for transactions.

I am a small trader most of the time I used to buy forum currency exchange section. There have many trusted exchangers and also you can use escrow if you are new and rate is very reasonable.

I used cex.io when I need to buy bitcoin using my card and rate is preev rate. I don't recommended to use cex.io because I hear some horror story but nothing happened recently.

You could register at bitstamp, but you have to give it KYC documents. Alternatively you could register at the Kraken and supply less information if you only want to do small buys. The kraken lets you do small wire transfers if you provide your address.

This is its KYC system

Be careful with using btc-e from uk bank accounts. I've heard of people haveing their bank accounts closed and I also think btc-e is technically illegal to use in the uk because it doesn't comply with aml laws and other such rules. Are you just wanting to buy bitcoins?

Finally, you can buy through paypal using virwox, but the fees are high. This link explains the process.

If I cared about privacy I would not use coinbase.

Unfortunately if you really really care about privacy, there's nothing you can do beyond meeting IRL with a local trader, everything else is not really anonymous cause it goes outside of the BTC ecosystem (banks involved)

But if you are going to buy a small amount, then don't over think about it. No one really cares that you buy 1 BTC or something.

Yes, if you want to buy pretty anonymously, use localbitcoins, although where I live there are not very many reliable sellers. Which is really too bad. Maybe localbitcoins will get more participants as time goes by.

I can buy from a BTC ATM, but the premium has risen to a very high 14% over "spot", which is now just too high for me.

I also buy from circle.com, as they made it easy to sign up. They use 2FA, and so far no problems. My limit is a low $300 though.

buy bitcoin from a trusted place/site/exchanger. and buy for cheaper price. local bitcoin is the most preferred place to buy bitcoin for me.
Even I didn't bought bitcoin ever, but if I need to buy I would buy from localbitcoin for sure. or I will buy from this forum's currency exchange section.

I've been trying to read about "safe" "secure" and "mainstream" (lots of people use it, proves it works) ways of buying bitcoin.

What's your opinion Coinbase? I mention this because I've heard lots of horror stories pop up, even recently regarding hiccups and accounts being wrongfully charged or wrongfully closed, enough for me to think twice.

What do most of you all use? There's also https://localbitcoins.com but I rather not deal in such ways.

I don't know, any how, what methods do you guys use that you consider reliable? safe? That you've found relatively "dependable" so to speak?

I've been wanting to mine for years, but waited too long, and then boom! Now bitcoin has taken off to extreme levels, and we're on the brink of the halving.. thus I at least rather have some then none by now.

Thanks in advance!

Try to buy at Xapo, i used xapo to buy my bitcoin that im storing for upcomming bitcoin halving. Just dont try buying at coinbase many stories are popping out that they have issues in buying bitcoins at coinbase, better not to risk you money their

I got mine from all my friends I do not trust coinbase I am not comfortable uploading all documents even if the site is trusted,it's much more better to buy in small amounts but to many people that you trust..
