(000228.79-:E-000157.73:N-:R-SU:C-30:V)   

Can any of you give advice to one of my supporters who asked this Bitcoin question?
He has been using Vending machines but they charge a very high fee.

Just pop your replies in the comments below this article.

He asked asked :-

I’m trying to find a way to purchase bitcoin without the
large fee, and trying to be as private as possible. So far no luck.
I was told you can buy from an individual if you can find someone
needing cash and willing to accept small transfer fee, Banks here
charge lots of money to transfer funds into a bitcoin vendor like
coinbase, and using a debit card costs about 5 percent or more.

Most of these vendors want all kinds of personal information and want
to know what you are going to do with the bitcoin, etc.

Bitcoin vending machines charge 11 or 12 percent, out of the question.
