VERY GREAT to hear this is working... shame it wasn't last week, when I was wracking my brain on how to buy an airfare with bitcoin I remembered the site that could buy whatever I wanted with bitcoin. Couldn't remember the name, put the question up in reddit and sure enough somebody linked me. Dammit though, site was down. I wanted to see if you could book a flight from Melbourne to Peru. Would you have been able to do it? Too late now, I'm leaving tomorrow. Flights would be a great thing to be able to pay for with bitcoin.

Have a great trip and the next time, we really look forward to helping you purchase your airline tickets!

Okay no problem! I knew it was some legal ish :-)

That doesn't mean you cannot just order the game itself from Gamestop through Bitspend! Heck, let us know what game you want to pre-order, and we will put it through for you as your first Bitspend purchase and we will waive the normal fee

I don't get the product. It's not clear for your ringing endorsement of your own business or your web site. It looks like you shop for a fee. Maybe you should have a "How it works" page.

Are there other businesses that do this? Do they make money? I've never heard of it except for wealthy people who need their time for things other than shopping.

Quote from our home page:
"Bitspend allows anyone, to shop anywhere online, and pay with Bitcoins when the merchant does not accept them. Order your item through Bitspend, pay in Bitcoins, and we pay the merchant in their chosen format for you!"

I apologize if it isn't clear to you--maybe we need to do some work on that on our end to better clarify for those who do not know what site they are visiting. For the most part, those who visit us know exactly what they are there... to buy anything, from any website, using your Bitcoins as payment

That is on you home page only 33% of the time. I totally missed it. Because it's part of a display that keeps changing I ignored it while looking elsewhere for a description.

Don't get us wrong, we love the constructive criticism, it lets us improve our service to you. While the majority of those who visit Bitspend know why they are there, you have a great point. We will work to make it more clear what our service is "in a nutshell", on a more prominent area of the main page.

Any chance for Gamestop gift cards??? Or Moneypaks?

We're intentionally avoiding any and all "gift cards" right now, until we have 100% legal clearance to do so, as there is a big grey area there when it comes to the Anti-Money Laundering laws, and we in no way want to violate any law which could threaten our otherwise legitimate business.

In the future, when(if) our attorneys give us the go on that, we will offer it

I thought about a long and comical response to give you, but I figured the cold hard fact of a definitive answer would be best.

Can you use 3rd party escrow with BitSpend?

As of now no. We know your trust is the hardest thing we have to earn as a company, but we are off to a great start. Over $7,000 in orders have been placed with us this first 5 days!! We have an open-office policy, meaning anyone can come by our South Florida office and say hi or even ask about Bitcoins(see our address and location on the contact us page on our site).

We operate as transparent and open as possible, so we can earn the trust of the Bitcoin community. If you are in FL, come by
