Oh and check out UK420’s site he has a guide on buying bitcoins

Blockchain app, best I’ve tried.

Coinmama works well in most countries.

Hi Sphex
I signed up to Coinbase and used Electrum as my main wallet.
I transferred money from my bank account to my Coinbase, then exchanged from sterling into BC within Coinbase. I then transferred my BC across into my electrum wallet to use as the main adress for sending with littlebiggy providers.
If you plan to do this way don't miss out the last step, (don't send bitcoins from Coinbase itself, transfer to your personal wallet (Electrum) or else you can be banned from Coinbase), also, Coinbase takes 1.49% off the value transferred as well as a 0.10p mining fee. Its best to add £5/$5 extra to cover the charges.
Good luck, it's easier than what it sounds, you'll be up and running in no time =)

Coinbase is easy to get started with but not sure if they are still limiting transactions. It took me a good year to establish & ensure a smooth flow of bitcoin & I use 2 different sites-one to "buy from" where I store my coin (for purchases on LB) and one to purchase bitcoin. I transfer the bitcoin to my "buy from" site.

I try to keep several hundred dollars in bitcoin at my disposal because you never know when they are going to change the rules and try to block (online) purchases.

a lot if trial & error and I lost, at first, some coin. Now I make a little cash in addition to having the coin to make a purchase on LB. Best case scenario is make a buy and bitcoin makes a nice gain and you can make your purchase off your increase.

Hope this helps.

Coinbase app is probably the simplest way. What country are you in?

Hi thanks for info. Yeah I ended up using coinbase. Also followed some of the guides listed and it turned out to be pretty straight forward.

Yeah def looks daunting at first but so simple once your setup. Don’t be afraid here my friend it’s all good, my advice is check feedback and how recent the last feedback was. Also try messaging the vendor before you order to check stock. Also just my advice and totally up to you but I stay away from international delivery eg. USA or Canada to uk as the penalties for getting busted are just not worth it for me. Hope you have fun, I certainly have!

Yeah man, once you get your head around it, it's easy.
Enjoy!

Thanks v much for your response. I still haven’t heard back from the seller.

No need because the order magically came through in the post yesterday. Thanks nonetheless and good to know re transaxe.

I’m in the same situation. I placed an order and paid for it
Then the order shows as expired. Not getting a response from the seller.

Thanks for writing back yea the company or bitcoin wallet I’m with Canceled it . It’s back in my wallet . It’s good to no though even if does get expired you can still track it if you get me with block chain. I have getmy bitcoins from that wallet into a different wallet now Cause ones it’s in only does withdrawals every 24 hrs

So if I'm getting this right, I can add a topic here on LB, share a link to it anywhere on the internet, and when the link gets clicked I earn coins?

What kind of content do you think will work?

I would write about making edible recipes and how 2 make concentrates like BHO. This is fair game to repost anywhere.

Dude, just logged in after being awol a week or so and all my messages and transaction history is gone. Is it a bug? I can't see my order or the messages to seller.. :(

When was the order? It takes 45 days for data to wipe.

OK. Yeah, it was from 10th of december. However, order is still pending as it was confiscated in customs and seller has sent a re-shipment. I don't understand why the message history is deleted though?

Security is what makes little biggy possible. A treasure trove of messages would gather without this and our community would be a much more valuable target. If you want to keep messages just press the button.

Hi. Thanks for the response. I've just looked in my wallet and the money's gone but when I click on the transaction it says it's pending. I originally ordered around 1pm this afternoon. How can I find the address?

The money has gone from my wallet and is no longer pending but my order is missing??. Don't know what else to do

We see you have resolved this but note to readers:
Use private messages for documentation.
Screen shots are not needed just the btc address you sent funds to or the lb order id, everything can be determined with this.
