That's ridiculous. I wonder if BitStamp is the same (seems like a Coinbase clone). Oh well, like you said, you can immediately make the purchase and it's market value, unlike the inflated prices of localbitcoins.

Exactly. So if there is some downward movement on the market and the price hits right on Coinbase, I don't mind waiting 4 days. But if you start moving your BTC to exchanges, their may be a lot of trading opportunities you''re missing out on within that period of time.
Plus moving BTC from a wallet to an exchange is a lot easier than sending fiat through a bank wire transfer to the exchange, plus, some banks can charge up to $40+ for an international wire transfer which is fucking Stoop.
I couldn't believe it when the woman working told me that.

Same here. Had the same experience.
I wasn't aware of any exchanges that took U.S. wire transfers, however. Or are you not in the U.S.?

No I'm in the US.
I may be getting things mixed up. I use BTC-E and some people were talking about people in China needing to send wire transfers. Some exchanges allow US residents to use PayPal or OKPay but most of the third party payment processors don't allow you to send money from the US.
It's much easier for me to buy on coinbase and send my BTC to my wallet on BTC-*E to trade for other crypto and different currencies., all right from my computer at home or right on my phone. I've never dealt with anyone on Local BTC because the closest person to me selling BTC is 45 minutes away.
I should start selling them to close the gap honestly.

Einsteinium supports science. 2 percent of all coins mined are collected for monthly donations to science projects. They just donated to some guy working at yale studying cancer related things. Volume is starting to increase on poloniex as well. With each donation there will be more press and more interest, driving up the price I would like to think.
Also, I hold both. 
I believe Einsteinium was around 350-400 when I made this post, it is now arund 700-730 satoshis on poloniex. I hope ya bought!

I have a few hundred. I figured with all the hype and the coins being free at first, I might as well.
if they even get close to a dollar I'm going shopping on dogeroad.
