Took me a week before ID check worked (more than timeout, it also forgot my data uploads 3 times.. not reassuring). One day I got a mail saying I was in.
some use localbitcoins to sell hand to hand (never used it).
Id verification has nothing to do with liquidity. You should get verified before you get into it. GDAX volume for Litecoin/USD was $300M today. If that's not enough you can exchange for BTC and then for USD.
Trade volume isn't the same as liquidity either.
How do you distinguish the two in your head, just asking?
You may try https://changelly.com , I used it a couple of times and seemed cheaper and more reliable than shapeshift.
I've never trusted the MFA for transfers on GDAX, what I do is transfer to my Coinbase account and then create a bank transfer there where, for some reason, their MFA mysteriously works.

Haven't tried it personally.
Use shapeshift. No id verification needed. The tradeoff is you pay more in fees.
I'm using Kraken myself, and have found it to be working as expected, except it's just really slow.
Dollar prices for selling e.g. ETH seem 10-20% lower than market.
There is always some sort of spread because arbing has fees, but 10-20% is unheard - had to be a momentary difference. I'm seeing $766 Kraken vs $789 GDAX right now. Both are easy to get USD in/out of* so pretty comparable.
