I know that many people have already pointed it out but still, I will advise trading through the localbitcoin site. I trade their weekly and I saw it first in 2013 so it is a very old and very trusted site. Is always available even if your country Bans cryptocurrency. You can withdraw your funds at your bank at any other online service suggest PayPal or any other online wallet.
Thanks for sharing your experience jak3, really appreciate it.
