This includes any time at which the order was open.

This is a consistent markup from what I've experienced.

Everything that I've read both on and off BitInstant's web site suggests that they use MtGox directly.
More to the point, BitInstant doesn't bother telling you what their exchange rate is going to be; it could be set at a markup of $200 for all you know.
UPDATE:
Charlie Shrem (/u/bitinstant) ultimately compensated me more than what I thought I was still owed, and for that I thank him; I feel that my personal matter has been satisfied amicably.
I still believe that there are strange discrepancies in the data I've seen, which have not yet been accounted for, and I hope Charlie looks into it for the sake of his otherwise valuable company; I wouldn't want BitInstant to be blamed for the errors (or malice) of another party in the pipeline.
In any case, I would currently still feel comfortable using BitInstant.
βThere will definitely be some guys who their art is more important than their wallet - Moxley is a clear example, though he had the advantage of making a mil a year for many years in WWE and a wife who probably makes plenty under their employ as well.β
βI think there are only a select few who care about wrestling as an art the way Moxley does, especially in the WWE. Most of them will take the paycheck.β
Three word-for-word quotes by three sepereate posters next door. Sometimes they do like to make things easy for us, donβt they?
Same shit, different day.
Large operations with overhead often mark up labour and materials but should I do the same? I make small items like cutting boards and such
We are in the hunt for a new AC unit. Our 13 year old heat pump is done. We first talked to the Costco AC people. Their offer for a Lennox was higher than we wanted but we werenβt sure. We talked about financing and apparently we needed 18 inch ducts for another $900
We then called a local company. The sell Trane and were 4K less than the other company if we pay cash instead of financing. And it was for a higher SEER system. They also said we donβt need new ducts.
Once again that is $4,000. That isnβt chump change. We get our third bid tomorrow morning.
If anyone has any reason we should upgrade our ducts to 18 I would love to hear it. We were told we need to move 2,000 and the first guy said it wasnβt enough and the second said it was fine.
Matt Firor - ESO "Game Director"
Aug 23, 2013
When asked if the game had anything "extra" beyond a subscription, Mr. Firor said:
"There won't be anything like 'bonus points' but we'll have a shop to buy kinda fun stuff and services too, like name changes and things like that. But it's not part of the core game, anything in the core game is included in the subscription price."
What "fun stuff" means was not detailed...
Paul Sage - ESO "Creative Director"
Sep 7, 2013
"Sage confirms that Matt Firor simply picked his words poorly when he mentioned there would be a cash shop on top of the subscription fee. Sage says that Firor was talking about things like name changes β things you cannot normally do in the course of your gameplay. He even states that to his knowledge there is no cash shop."
When he got there, a woman extended her hand.
"Good afternoon, sir," she said. "My name is Patricia Wack. How may I help you today?"
Kermit replied, "Hi-ho, Patricia! I'm Kermit the Frog, and I would like to borrow some money."
They walked over to her desk and sat down.
"Certainly, Mr. Frog--"
"Oh, just call me Kermit."
"Okay... Kermit. How much money would you like to borrow?"
"Ten thousand dollars."
Mildly surprised, Ms. Wack looked intently at Kermit.
"Do you have any references?"
"Well, I suppose I could use my father, Keith Richards."
Ms. Wack froze for a second, then...
"THE Keith Richards?"
"Oh, yes. In fact, he told me he's friends with your manager, which is why I came in here."
"Okay... Do you have any collateral?"
"Excuse me?"
"Collateral. Something of value, like a car, or a boat..."
"Oh, yes! I do have something. I have this."
Kermit reached into his briefcase and placed a small figurine on the desk. Patricia looked curiously at the object, then at our amphibious friend.
"What's this?"
"It's a Hummel."
"A what?"
"A Hummel. They're supposed to be quite valuable. Well, at least this one is to me."
She picked up the Hummel and stood up.
"If you don't mind, I would like to show this to the manager."
"Oh, no! I don't mind at all!"
So, Patricia took the Hummel to the manager's office, knocked on the door, and walked inside.
"Patricia! What can I do for you?"
"Mr. Wilson, there's this... frog named Kermit at my desk, and he wants to borrow $10,000, but he has only this for collateral."
Mr. Wilson looked at the Hummel, then out to her desk.
"I don't see anything out of order here."
"But, Mr. Wilson--"
"Look, it's a knick-knack, Patty Wack. Give the frog a loan. His old man's a Rolling Stone."
I love days like this. Who doesn't. Everything is in the green, you keep looking at your portfolio with big dollar signs in your eyes. I get it. You want to keep holding to maximize your profits. But believe you SHOULD start cashing out a small part of your portfolio when the market is on a massive bull run like this. I am saying this as someone who held through the 2017 bull run without selling ANYTHING at all. I had to hold through a 2 year bear market to break even again. When times are bad, buy. When times are good, sell. It's as simple as that.
Thank you for reading.
