Whoever downvoted this has a valid point since this isn't helpful yet.  At the moment, your best bet as an alternative would be either trading OTC with bitcoin-otc (See http://bitcoin.stackexchange.com/questions/1829/how-does-one-use-bitcoin-otc?rq=1) if you're technically minded, or trading on Localbitcoins.com if you're comfortable doing the trade in person.
