Hmmm there is some kind of store at this address now but without any contact details. Scam?

Awesome awesome store.  All we need is a hundred more sites just like this (not that I want competition to ruin you).  This is what expanding Bitcoin infrastructure is all about.

Someone needs to do this in a real time local level.  Like a bitcoin grubhub.  You go online... you send the bitcins, someone delivers your food.

I am in NYC if someone wants to get this going.

A medium sized USPS priority mail box ships to Western Europe for 5.75 BTC.  The dimensions are 11"x8-1/2"x5-1/2".  For smaller packages, it is cheaper.  Prices balloon quickly as you go up in mass or volume, though.

The reason it messes up the count is because it double counts items which are linked to multiple categories.  I know it is annoying, but it is just one of a thousand little osCommerce issues I'm working on.

Its a bit weird how when you click Food-> (129) it will only show 30 results: I'm guessing it doesn't show products on a subcategory?

btw how is the shipping to Europe? Do you have any idea how much longer and expensive it is?

You know, I was concerned that the exchange rate was so high because there were so many long term long position holders.  It seems possible that the price is supported by a good amount of commerce.  In truth, though, we can't really say it won't take a dive down and make your ramen seem cheap, by comparison.

If we want prices to go up, we must continue to build this market and spend, until everyone wants a bitcoin or 10000.  Smiley

Just a FYI- got my order today, well packed (no broken noodles!) and just what I ordered. Smiley

Man, this was some expensive ramen! (given new exchange rates, at the time it was reasonable Smiley )

It is not prohibitively expensive, just very expensive.  :/  Pizza is on the site because everyone keeps requesting it.  I costed it out, and that is what it would take.  I think that you'll find the rest of our products are chosen for easy shipping.  As such, they're reasonably priced.

I'd also like to mention that we increased our selection by 50% today, including a new Hygiene category.

Because of the volatile (read: glorious) exchange rate movement over the last few days, I've pegged the price significantly above the 7-day average.  I hope that helps!

i will not buy a pizza for about 90-100 USD!

He said it was prohibitively expensive. Shipping with dry ice is certainly not cheap!

If you tried to live entirely from bitmunchies, you just might get scurvy Tongue.

Bah, scurvy. I was worried about rabies.

Hey the site seems to be coming along nicely, I bet that is almost a full time job now. I really hope you can get a better supplier, Your prices seem a little high,But I know thats the cost of the small quantity sales. Anyway, were you located, there should be some grocery store suppliers. For my grocery store I used krasdale, they have a crap load of products at pretty good prices.

I have ordered a few Chicago style pizzas in that manner before.  Nothing like it!

Here in Pittsburgh, the local (and legendary) pizza place Mineo's overnights pizzas.  They cook them half-way.  Then freeze them.  Then ship them overnight without any dry ice or anything.  Then people either let the pizza thaw and cook immediately, or throw it in the freezer for later.

I did send one of these to a friend, and he said it tasted exactly like the real thing.  There wasn't a noticeable quality degradation with the freezing process.

But they don't accept bitcoins... yet.
