    Is it possible the book gave me a bad wallet address?

    What was the address? You can look up any transaction on blockchain.info.

    Yeah just shows unconfirmed..almost at 3 hours...only a 56 dollar transaction with a .20 fee...5d says nothing they can do as its correct on their end.

    Post the transaction ID so we can see fee that was paid. It's very dependent on how much you pay for fee as how fast it gets processed. For the most part if you pay like ten cents it will get processed quickly. If you really want to make sure it gets done quick you can mortgage your house and pay 25 cents.

    If you had to consolidate coin from multiple wallets for the payment it can make the transaction larger in Kb size. The miners look at the fee as a ratio of the KB size to determine if it is good value for them to process or not.

    Why don't you just leave it in the book? Yesterday had 33 bitcoins at a popular bitcoin book. Completely safe.

    I was finally able to muddle through getting this bitcoin thing set up.
    I've made two deposits to Bookmaker (the second one because of the
    bonus they are giving on bitcoin deposits) - both went through almost
    instantly.
    I made one deposit to 5Dimes today and it took about 30 minutes to
    go thru.
    Both were processed by Blockchain using my PC not a mobile app.

    Now that i've figured the whole process out it is way simpler than having
    to do the ** thing.
