Ideas On How to buy Bitcoin
PLEASE NOTE: Due to volatility in cryptocurrency markets, we have now shortened the payment window to 4 days for all Bitcoin and Litecoin orders. If you place an order and then find that you cannot pay it in 96 hours or less, then please start over with a new order once your payment is ready to send. Thank you. -MB

When you get bitcoin if you are not sending directly to us you will need to have a bitcoin wallet. You can always save any leftover for future purchases.
Here are our wallet suggestions:
For a mobile phone we recommend Blockchain and Mycelium
For your computer we recommend Electrum
For an online wallet we recommend Greenaddress
All of these will work fine but make sure that you have a GOOD password and that you REMEMBER it! You can lose all your bitcoin if you forget your password!
