After suffering from GOX refusing to give me my money or tell me why for 7 weeks I went to bitcoin.de. I can now sell BTC and get the cash within 3 work days max. No excuses, no BS, lower fees, and as it works with direct SEPA transfers you never have someone else holding onto your money.

If you want to sell BTC for EUR GOX is a terrible way of doing that. Bitcoin.de works great for me. I never tried bitstamp.

Here is my referral link (which gives me 10% of the 0.5% you pay on future transactions at no cost to you):

I actually saw a major advantage of MtGox in dealing with the fiat payments. bitcoin.de is just a market place, not an exchange. In a sense GOXes .6% are cheaper for what is on offer than the .5% from bitcoin.de. Yes, they have some safeguards in place, but still, if something goes wrong in the line of an unauthorised account use, it is yourself who has to deal with it.
Unfortunately the whole discussion is kind of pointless as GOX is currently not providing anything near to be called service. Simply not handing their customers money back renders all their nice features useless.
