Kelly,
The prices in localbitcoins are too high.
I'm actually thinking to create a bitcoin club associated with my
Scientitifc Transhumanism FB page
https://www.facebook.com/groups/scientific.transhumanism/.
I want to buy bitcoins for people because I think everybody should own a
piece (you don't have to buy a whole one, you can buy a tiny fraction).
I think I will charge a small percentage for the transaction with a part of
it donated to SENS.
Charges will be proportional to how much bitcoin one buys (smaller for
large orders).
Let me know if anybody is interested.
Giovanni
