On the point of converting to BTC: You are then taking a risk, which I'd rather not take. It will take an hour or more for the BTC to get to you from tradehill. Then another 1-2 hours to get to Mt Gox to get back to USD. What if the market tumbles during that time period? I want the USD that is owed to me, in full.
Uh, by that reckoning, if you had started the process when you created this thread, you'd probably already have your USD...
