How can they have such good prices?
Are they selling at a loss? Not paying taxes?

There MUST be something deep there.

By using nonreversible BTC, the store has a 3%-5% pricing advantage over any stores that must pay credit card processing fees and write off fraudulent chagebacks.

They have crazy good prices at bitcoinstore. It's just a shame that the interface isn't as polished as what you would expect from a major electronics website. I've ordered once already though, and the service was great.

The idea behind the project is to not just provide electronic goods for BTC but also to show the market that it’s possible to make good money trading physical goods with the cryptocurrency. In fact, due to his connections with suppliers and distributors he is able to bring prices to BitcoinStore that will rival even Amazon and NewEgg in prices.
