Yes Coinbase are a joke. They are known as a premium service, as in they charge you a marked up price from the actual listed price then add their fees on top. GDAX is their exchange (you log in using your Coinbase log in) and these fees are no where near as high.

anywhere else I can buy using bank accounts and Credit cards?
i like binance so far! nice ui,, and easy to use
does Binance accept fiat? dont think so
I dont think so, but i didn't try
depends on where you live? there are local exchanges or the P2P marketplaces
Try CEX.io or http://uphold.com/ or even better buy directly from someone using https://www.dashous.com/ or something.
Yeah I know Gdax and BTW, I'm not saying coinbase is a bad exchange but sometimes in the event of downtrend of Bitcoin, they play with rates for you to avoid trading with them to keep their coin for higher rate ( my personal opinion though ) I think they don't want you to trade at that time maybe because they have bought their coin at higher rate...
