If you're using coinbase it's virtually impossible

say you need £150, if you buy £160, it says it will be something like a £4.99 fee, so you'd think "oh i'll have plenty of headroom there, even some spare change" but you won't, once you buy it you'll likely end up with something like £149 in your coinbase balance after they take the purchase fee and whatever the hidden fees are, i've been getting absolutely rinsed by this for 5 years every week

use mempool.space to check the current network fees to send BTC and try to work out a total from there once you've factored in the expected and unexpected fees

i've gotten fairly good at it, usually end up purchasing a couple quid more than i need

so for you, you need £128, safest bet would be to buy £138, minus all the endless fees you'll probably end up with around £131 once it's all said and done which leaves enough to cover network fees to purchase on here!
good luck!

The spread is likely the 'hidden fee' you are referring to Hesh.

You should learn yourself how to use either Coinbase Advanced or Kraken Pro. You'll cut your purchase fees way down that way, plus you won't be paying extra in network fees on Coinbase because you actually have custody of your coins and your transactions aren't batched together with hundreds of others incurring higher network fees.

To answer OP;

If you use standard Kraken instant buy to buy your Bitcoin you'll pay:

$164 for your order and postage
0.00003BTC ($3.03 currently) set withdrawal fee
$3-6ish BTC purchase fee

So around $175-$180 to be safe.

Like Christmas I only do this once a year. Appreciate the feedback

This is amazing. Was going to but 200 quid but maybe that's a tad excessive. Like you I've been nailed so many times and often by about 10 dollars.

It's frustrating AF

Coinbase charge about £4 £5 every £100 .

This is a super useful guide.

Nephew says they have upgraded the block chain so TX are not as expensive these days. He a whizz.

What a lovely supportive community! Happy Christmas everyone.

i always let a little extra sit in my wallet, i've wound up with a free order every few months from the rise in btc :)

I was the same as you last year but you do learn quickly. Been a smoker of flower for many years but after a few years off, dived back in. I started off with Dr Extract's carts https://littlebiggy.org/item/Msu0BIALrBEJYKyHLkdIunIv/view/v as you can buy the Vape Pen battery at the same time for just under $55 and away you go. It's a premium product and I've bought a few of them as it's so discreet. I haven't used distillate on it's own yet but I've gone down a rabbit hole of an E-rig and currently loving my new adventures with concentrates.

Its awesome bit of kit does make you cough little but like you said Sofasurfer its learning best way for the individual !!
Agree with your post very fast shipping too im knew like yourself to these vapes after loads of decades smoking hash or flower but they are good had mine about 3-4 days shown no signs of going down liquid in cart so it must last long.
Few tokes in morning like 4-5 then the high lasts abit too not heavy high but mellow high can function !!!

Hello everyone,
I made a topic with up-to-date, non-KYC, anonymous options to purchase Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. Hopefully this can help a few people purchase crypto with less hassle.

SOTL

Seems I can only buy £100 at a time now on coin base….wtf ! If there is more of a crackdown , whats the alternative…..if we can’t use BTC?…what is LB going to do to deal with these changing times

Try to make a purchase and ur limit willl increase (just don’t fully put the payment threw)

Seems to not be the case anymore. Coin base is working for me for the time being

I use revolut as my only bank account. no need for a physical bank account,because i have a mastercard with them,all my earnings are paid into revolut,and did not need any photo id.I buy my bitcoins from them and then transfer them to my exodus wallet.fees are really low also :)

Do I need to send to a wallet with Revolut? I've just opened an acc just to buy btc 🙃. Can I send straight to vendor?

I’ve done same w/ Coinbase - bought bc & sent straight to vendor. I do have a Coinomi wallet but haven’t used in ages. Only concern is I haven’t submitted a wallet address in case of dispute/refund. Don’t know where to do that, I’m little new to LB/Transaxe & unfamiliar w/ the proper process. Any advice from others would be appreciated

never send straight to vendor, get a bitcoin wallet

Why? Does anyone official actually care about 2dbp? Unless it large selling qualities

yeah your bank!

Why should I not send straight to the vendor

I have a wallet with coinbase can I us this to send bitcoin to vendors on lb

I use coinbase with no issues whatsoever

Yes I normally use coinbase to send to sellers

I use it ... it works but transactions are traceable back to me ... so not anonymous.

Anything other than blockchain, right bunch of pisstakers they are

They've stopped allowing BTC purchases from the UK

Does anyone use Paxful? theres sellers who want paypal as payment method and i'm wondering if its legit? the exchange rate is 99% on some offers that would save me a lot of money as i have no ID and being using coincoupon at £15 fees for each buy!

Yeah paxful is good to buy from just buy from sellers with lots of good reviews as some want more money than you sent nd agreed upon but it is overall good

It's a danger zone for sure but a very strong rep helps, take it slow

Holy cow - bitcoin is effing complicated. It's not just setting it up, it's all the fees that get added here and there. Wallet, exchange, verification - and then when you take the leap you discover a UK credit card purchase gets you a 24 hour cooling off. WTAF?
I guess it's just the first transaction but even so.
There should be a really simple guide here, step by step and list a few wallets and a few exchanges. So many searches to figure it out and going round in circles.
I was gonna recommend the thing to my mates but they won't have the patience.
Yeah sitting out my 24 hours now.

well I did it - all through Exodus, dunno if rates good or not but whatevs. Avoid Paybis, bank accepted it but Paybis rejected every time

Btw. Ive been using the plain blockchain wallet for two years without any issues. Least hassle wallet Ive seen! And since I wont upgrade my OS on my mac its one of the few I can actually use. Just sayin, cause Ive seen how it is hated upon on the net. Guess its the competition that spread this lie.

When I try pay from my wallet its asking for a fee ,not letting me .tried all options. Any help appreciated

How much do you have in your wallet?….if it’s less than the total with fees it could throw up an error🤔

I didn't have enough in the wallet. Sorted it .thanks

Cool😎….hope you enjoy your order👍

Which bitcoin site to use

Exchanges still cant beat the price of btc I get on localbitcoinsdotcom. The only hassle is I need to order btc and go to my local national financial agency and pay a money transfer slip with cash. Thats not a prob tho, cause the teller is a very nice looking woman :P And btc is in my wallet in 3-6 hours after I pay.

Can I ask, does 'local national financial agency' roughly translate to the Union in the West or something similar?

It will depend on which country you are in. Look for the bank that is managing the most business in your region...

Seen this on one of the other platforms not sure if 100% correct but I would be wary of coinbase they are very intrusive closed my account a few months ago. They give details to HRMC depending on whether you’ve spent over the threshold limit.

Closed my account last week too.

What do you use now? Cos this is ruining it for me right jow

Allrite I use bitpanda now so far so good no problems.

Ok so I want to buy Bitcoin I’m in the uk cex.io seems to say I still can and there’s money in my wallet but it won’t allow me to make payment with any method… is this because I’m in the uk? And is Paybis going to be any better if I open an account and does anyone have any idea if I can move what I have in the vex account over? Sorry but doing it the first time was hard and now I just don’t really understand the problem!

Does anyone use the app Bitcoin.com ?

Can someone help me. I’m struggling like mad, iv had my ID rejected at two different exchanges now. All I’m trying to do is order

I have the exact same problem, I open an account and send ID for verification but after days of waiting I get rejected. Really need to buy of LB but can not get around the BTC issue

Finally just got message from.coinbase that I am now verified, will try first top up in morning as I think fees should be less. Then Will make my first purchase of a Oz of hash from lb

Just gone to pay for an order and Bittylicious will only let me buy a MINIMUM of £100 worth of BTC. Anyone else experiencing this? I'm fully registered and have purchased before!

Yes it’s for everyone, it’s because Bitcoin fees are through the roof at the mo and they are trying to negate the effects. They peaked Tues and seem to be dropping but not yet close to what everyone is used to - I expect it will be several days at least until they remove the restrictions

Can you use binance to pay sellers?

You can, however the network fee for BTC is currently £21.... 😔

I still stand by this, in two years of very regular ordering I have only had to follow up twice and received quick response and resolution both time. Cheers for all the lovely smoke ;)

Couldn’t agree more! RadarBreeder is one of the best on LB.

Thank you very much
we appreciate it.

One Love
RB

Thank you very much :)

Funny you reply to these posts but not the complaints

Probably a good thing he 8s not on the items list

rb a total legend of the game. ultra professional. brings all the good products those gummies are the best on LB i tried. consistency in quality and standards is impressive. prices are quite fair. packaging is absolute top notch. keep up the good work man, we appreciate. one love.

Thank you
We have same love mate
🙏🏼💚

Does reading and ignoring all messages over multiple days count as good service in your books?

Here to echo this sentiment.

1 day delivery on extracts, with SD I didn't pay for.

Class products and service!

We do special things to everyone
One Love
RB

Never ever pay during US working hours!

The fees are high atm for everyone mate,high fees and long wait getting your btc sent

That's rough, thank you. Glad to know it's not just me.

Traffic on the blockchain- btc is going to the moon.

Miners set their fees so that they charge whatever they want for the fastest speed. Transactions like ours are at the bottom of the pool. Imagine what someone trading $50m is prepared to pay for speed?

People sending half a BTC are paying $2k in fees. I can't be the only one that currently watches the blockchain in real time? Mempool.space is a great site. There was one wallet that has had trillions pumped through it. Probably best not to dig any deeper into that one...

Aye. Im watching Mempool today completely fucked off. After the last fee spike and the time it took to sort out, im not throwing anymore money into this stressful bs waiting game. Simply cant buy here, and DGT is about the only guy I wish to buy from anywhere. Its obscene that such a great idea is let down by the worst payment method you could imagine. Im just not using btc, anywhere, ever again

We should suggest switching payments to another coin, solutions can be found

I bought as well today and it was £15 for mine 😩

Maybe admins should have a thought about using other coins usdt/xmr or whatsoever with less fees..

Same here I didn't even notice today since I was used to 1-2€ fees..
And out of 60€ order I spent 30€ on fees and before I realized it it was too late... Also I was stupid enough to cancel the rest of the order so now I'm asking the Borg if we can undo the canceling and pay(when fees are lower) the remaining amount since these 30€ fees are
already lost.. so cheers:P

Have you tried transfer? My cards get declined but transfers go through fine.

Zengo are offering first time users 0% fee for first purchases up to 200 usd (£180). Ideal for a one off purchase.

Hey there what do you mean by transfer all my uk bank now restricted crypto and don't know how to buy. been good for 3 years now can't buy aghhhhh

LLYOYDS! There is your solution

For the short term solution open a bank account with revolut. If you don't need any goods for a while, long term go chase or monzo.

Revolut will let you buy goods today short term cos they'll give you a virtual card once opened and that can take minutes but fees aren't so good but chase offer 1% cashback on spending for a whole year or monzo is good but you'll be waiting days for your card.

Make sure your vendor has been on recently as a few don't seem to bother with Society.
I've made multiple buys without issue, everything the same.
Went with GT's Falcon on my last order.

Yeah check some previous posts regarding settings in browser but otherwise all the same.

Completely different experience to mine, although similar circumstances. I was publicly labelled a liar and a thief by the very same vendor when my package didn’t turn up

Hi rtbobbyt, we have since improved the way we run things at Shroom Of The Loom. However, your attitude did trigger an adverse response on my part, which led to accusations (which albeit were not true, and I do apologize.) However, you still insisted on a refund when your parcel was in the Post Office and could've been picked up (Which after I told you I would not refund you for, you collected.) I did make a mistake, I did underpay the postage. I am sorry. These things happen.

SOTL

Fair play mate, you seem to be doing well here, good luck to you

At least you have had some Comms back. This is the worst experience I have had on here. Ordered on Monday with signed first class. It's now Saturday still not here. RealD, who I ordered a pen from on the same day has landed. Don't use the bullshit strike excuse cause there hasn't been a strike since this order was placed.

Hi mate, once an items been sent off its out of our hands and in Royal Mail's, we don't even know your postcode so until you respond to my message asking for it I can't help you. It isn't our fault for how long royal mail takes, but I understand you may be upset but delays are possible this time of year, I've had Special Deliveries far up north take up to 3 days to get there. Hopefully this issue will solve itself but if not please keep me up to date via messages :)

SOTL

Sent you it mate.

User has provided a postcode and address I know we didn't post to, after a thorough look of all 18 Reference Numbers for orders from the 3rd of October we have come to the conclusion we have never in fact posted to the postcode / address provided. We do believe this user may be trying to gain a free reship out of deceit so we have referred them to the borgs to dispute this purchase. "Not happy" about the time its taking to arrive, (If it was delayed, which it isn't it still wouldn't be our fault...) this is giving the ring of the classic customer service scam to us...

SOTL

Again you are accusing a user here of lying. I have used this site for 2 years and never had an issue with anyone. I have recently been using pistach and the only reason I used you is the offer on this bud. If I was going to try something shady like that would I do it with a premium strain. Don't worry I will be disputing this. You guys are a sham

I don't want to advertise other vendors on another vendors page, but I've direct messaged you a couple of recommendations 👍

Green cat and yourmumshouse never see me wrong lots of buys from both always consistent!

Can confirm RealD is a top vendor

Yeah try me and that’s coming from the horses mouth itself.

Like wise guys, Thank you.
Your cutom is always appreciated and the love i am shown on here really is more than just business.
We have now 3 postage days left before our 13/14 day break and have some lovely treats just landed too.
All the best to you all from the new year and wishing you a happy xmas!
RB

Rb gets my vote to, but can you please send my tracking number, update number sent thanks

just praying a oz of ssh is available this Saturday gonna be ordering it

ordered my oz waiting on a reply for tracking number

Please message and ask for tracking. We generally answer messages on Mon', Wed' and Fridays.
Regards
RB

RB gets my vote too. He has the price right 7g upwards for the quality of green on sale. While established vendors on here have added anywhere between 5 to 15 on top of prices from just a couple months ago, RB keeps it steady. For that reason he's my go to. Maybe other vendors should keep it more competitive at this price range too and they'll see an increase in custom. Or maybe not!
