I was curious why there is such a huge spread too. Is it hard to get money into Bitstamp? I have not used the site but it seems like a great arbitrage opportunity for someone.
I should indeed add that it takes longer than normal to get money into bitstamp. Dont know why. I even opened a support tiket (waiting for more than a week now... normally it is a few days)
I don't know where you live but normally it takes 24/48 hours, now waiting almost a full week!
thx for sharing that. I tought something was wrong, so I am not the only one!
Anyway, I opened a support ticket, hope to get those funds in asap (not for me, but for selling coins to friends, I am not selling my own coins
)
