So happy we have great exchanges in my country, nor verification time, 5 min entering any website no registration, payment and Bitcoins are send. It's perfect. Main reason is that one of our payment methods is instant and usually non-refundable so they know the funds are there, are immidiatly send to the exchange and with that confirmation the BTC gets transfered.
I did register today on Bitstamp for the. First time, but by the time I would be verified, allowed to buy and have funds deposited...
