Coinbase are shady as hell. They openly admitted that they hand out customers' details to third parties for "processing", and that some of these third parties share and sell that data with even more third parties, all without their users' knowledge and consent. They hand over customers' data to the government. They formed a partnership with a company who produce and sell privacy invading software to dictatorships and human rights abusers. I wouldn't trust them with a single satoshi, let alone all my personal details.
Yeah I've heard it probably the topic created in this forum before but anyway, this give me an enough reason to not believe in such platform that requires KYC. Personally, I am the type of person who doesn't want to exposed my identity online especially in this kind of environment hence, I'm finding an other way to deal with my transaction even if it is costly. I'd rather to take a costly fee than to exposed my identity in danger.
