Hey there Tek, thought I'd give this idea a bash on here, all of my google results have been turning up sour in regards to actually making a legitimate transaction for some bitcoins using PayPal as a purchase method through my card. I know a lot of trust issues are involved with PP>BTC transactions as the lack of escrow makes it a tricky one to operate with, but right now if I could use PayPal I would.
Currently I'm waiting on a letter from my bank so that I can make wire transfers by phone, however there is a bit of time to be waited (est. 2-3 days), once this comes through my door I'll be able to make a SILKY smooth transaction using LocalBitcoins and be on my road (heh).
Again though, just for a speedy xfer method I'd still like to hear some opinions from experienced folk on the Tek forums to give me some insight into how this can be done in a safe and stable method, if all turns to shit I'll just refer to bank transfers. Thanks in advance, Shaun.
P.s. hope you get your massive anonymous bitcoin donation, Logan.
