Not sure if this counts but I use gyft all the time to buy gift cards and use them. So technically I'm buying tons of physical goods by using Bitcoin

Well I've used my bitcoin to pay for a meal. Also i remember i paid in bitcoin to engage some seo work. The same amount equivalent in dollar was actually lower as the receiver do not mind getting less as long as he receives bitcoin.

No I have not used bitcoin as a fiat currency for physical goods. I just used bitcoin for buying online services. Other than that I have not spent any bitcoins I earned. In my view bitcoin as investment for retirement. So spemding for real goods or online goods are not good idea by this time itself.

Order a iphone case on newegg just now.  Is this real goods?

No matter what it is, as long as you bought something that you can touch, it is called "physical good". It's good that you actually bought it from NewEgg. This will increase their sales from Bitcoiner and continue to accept Bitcoin.

Yeah, but I guess the op mean more by "buying face to face".

I never bought physical good using Bitcoin directly. However, I do have the experience of shopping on Amazon.com using giftcard bought via Bitcoin. So far I bought two physical products on Amazon.com solely on my signature campaign payment.

It was my mum's birthday yesterday. And I wanted to buy a birthday cake for her, but when I reached the bread shop, I realized I forgot carrying my wallet and I had only a few bucks in my pocket.  I tried to talk to the boss of the shop if I can pay by bitcoin, to my surprise, she said YES and finally I paid the cake by bitcoin.  Grin

This is my first time to use BTC as real money buying a real physical goods. 

As a bitcoiner, using BTC online is very common.  Have you ever used Bitcoin as Real money to buy Real/physical goods?  plz share your experience.   Wink



Bought a iphone5s last month.

unfortunately i have never used bitcoin instead of fiat to buy physical goods , simply because there is no place that accepts bitcoin nor anybody who is interested in knowing about it in my country.
back when anybody could mine bitcoin at home with their pc , there was a lot of talking about bitcoin in my country but as difficulty grew the bitcoin popularity shrank Smiley

I haven't yet really. I convert all my bitcoins to my country's currency. There are not a lot of establishments here in my country that accepts bitcoins so I can't really buy any physical goods directly with it.

I haven't found local establishment that takes bitcoin, but it's very easy for online retailer to accept bitcoin by going through a payment processor. Are you sure there's no website online that you have access to that ship in the Philippines?
