BTC < > INR & USD
What about all those Ship to US Address--> Shipped to India --> then local shipping in India Providers?

A few people do that. No Clue how its done.

Yes, if you were going to order electronics from a non Indian website anyway, then you might as well order from them - as they are cheaper. But otherwise, with customs, their prices are not competitive.

What I've been doing is actually placing orders via bitspend.net to my friend in HK who can get electronics to India when he comes. Way cheaper.

Find friends in HK and Dubai is what I recommend :p

Hmmm... Anyone from Bitcoin family traveling to India? Smiley


That works if it is normal post or anything on those lines.
You still have to pay customs for electronics.!

You may have to pay customs for any electronics imported to India. So make sure you calculate that before purchasing from the website.

But it is awesome, have you seen the stuff???

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/ann-bitcoinstorecom-beta-electronics-super-store-with-over-500k-items-122190

I'm proud to announce the beta launch of BitcoinStore.com
BitcoinStore.com is the world's first, Bitcoin only, super store.
We currently have more than 500,000 products available for immediate shipment, including PCs, Laptops, Hard Drives, Printers, Digital Cameras, Monitors, TVs, Software and more!
Our prices are often lower than other major retailers like Amazon.com, NewEgg.com and Buy.com
This is possible because we have partnered with the worlds largest wholesale technology distributor, and avoid traditional merchant fees because we accept Bitcoin only.
In the very near future, content from other partners will be added so we will have more than 1,000,000 products and full international shipping support.

Some current examples of great deals from BitcoinStore are:

LG 55" 120HZ LED TV

BitcoinStore $1,163.17
Amazon $1,303.13
Newegg $1,249.99


HP 17.3" LED Notebook - Core i7 i7-2640M 2.8GHz

BitcoinStore $1,985.51
Amazon $2,266.66
NewEgg $2,317.00


Dell 2350D Laser Printer

BitcoinStore $175.66
Amazon $202.01
NewEgg $204.99

and much much more!

Domesting shipping is FREE on all orders over $100 USD.
$4.99 shipping for all domestic orders under $100
International FedEx and USPS shipping options are now available.
There is currently a $1,000 order minium during our beta launch.  (This will be removed soon)

In order to maintain these competitive prices, I will need to sell more than $800K USD worth of goods per quarter,  so please place your orders and help spread the word!

Please post your questions,  bug reports, and feature requests in the thread below.

Another review:

1) Ordered loaded Samsung laptop.  Was marked in stock, and arrived within 2-3 days of ordering.  Very fast turnaround, even with "standard shipping" (I was hoping for next day processing and shipping).  Laptop works great.  Very happy with this order.

2) Ordered 4x LED flashlights, with 3x of the same type (0.5W "super-led").  1x shipped immediately.  2x just arrived today.  Still waiting on 1x.
