I'm in the UK. Deposited some money for free with Britcoin via online banking, which went through in under 24 hours. Deposited some money with Mt Gox via priority transfer to their EU account at my bank teller window, which went through in about 47 hours and cost £15 in bank fees.

I traded the national currency (£ at Britcoin and $ at Mt Gox) for some BTC, at a price way above what it is now. I figure it will go back up in a week or so and am not worried about permanently losing money.

I'm not in US so transfering money is difficult in the inmediate but I would love to so as to Buy some. Thow I believe it will that a reasonable price for a stormy bitcoin situation is about 9us. I'm absolutely sure Bitcoins are a good investment because is a solid proyect but I guess this fluctation will have bad media for some time. This might afect future pricing too thow big speculators might have gone by then.

Aren't the Buy / Sell prices mixed up..?

The buy price should always be higher than the sell price and visa versa.

Great find though!
If the buy price were above the sell price, a trade would take place until there is a gap between buy and sell. So the buy price will always be below the sell price.

living in NZ, looking to purchase bitcoins through Mt Gox, need to make a transfer to aussie to Technocash who take a 5% fee before converting to US dollars and sending to Mt Gox, quite the lengthy process, with more fees than I'd like.

I plan on 'testing the waters' with a few hundred dollars. Played the penny stocks many times and love volatility. The 'real' stock market has been pretty boring for the most part lately. The action in the past hour is even more volatile than I'd like though I think lol. From $10.50 to $16 back to $12 in like a 10 minute span. Very few/small buy and sell orders in the $10.50-$15 range or so right now. Need some support to come in on either side or it's going to keep bouncing $2-4 every few minutes right now potentially.

So...since we are 'noobies'...are you...

A) an owner of bitcoins
B) Waiting anxiously to get funds transferred into MtGox or tradehill so you can start trading or investing in BTCs
C) Happily watching from the sidelines with no immediate interest in getting involved.

A & B

Same with the OP here.

I've actually been really fascinated with BTCs for awhile. But after speaking to a couple of friends, I have a little bit of cash that I was planning on spending on something useless, so why not try this, and have some fun.

I bought a few at 8, and at 14. I sold 1/3 of my stash at 30, and made my initial investment back, plus 10%. Today I bought a few more. We'll see what happens next week.

I bought a few less than 20 in the low teens. sold some into usd on trade hill
earlier today i went back into BTC so I'm now up to 23 of them.

I wish i had more or more cash to pick some up at the current price.

but i'm going long on BTC, even if the US and/or other countries attempt to threaten BTC

I guess i'm ok with being a social deviant.  I break the law every morning but going 5 over the speed limit

I'm such a rebel.

I THINK you can go up to 7 over without getting pulled over...but who knows lol. Probably depends on what kind of day the cop is having :p

I've got a few coins that I mined before the difficulty skyrocketed (jealous of people who mined more than a hundred). I sold a few on Mt Gox at $20, before it went up to $30. The remaining coins I have, I'm planning on holding on to. I've been in love with the idea of Bitcoins since before I knew they existed, ever since I read Neuromancer as a young lad.

I mined hundreds last summer when it was still pretty easy. Today if I tried to mine it would like be racing roller skates against a motorcycle. I was making some purchases and trades with my BTC via PM until I got thrown in the newbie jail for insufficient jaw-flapping in the public forums.

The exchanges are surprisingly slow to actually exchange (i.e. more than 24 hours), whether you're trying to get government currencies for BTC or vice versa. I wonder if they're just overwhelmed or if it's deliberate so they can arbitrage on the exchange rate: accept your funds on one day, then pick any of the following 7 days to actually provide something in exchange.
