impressive to hear you shop with bitcoin. my question is whether the price of your shirt is in accordance with the normal price if we buy with money? because we know BTC price can increase and decrease. please answer guys

price fluctuations are indeed an obstacle in shopping using bitcoin. when bitcoin goes down then we pay with more bitcoins than when bitcoin goes up, but for a piece of clothing and plus a fee, isn't it more expensive? because I personally have never directly used bitcoin for shopping

Great choice, your purchase even came with a free DT positive feedback:

kxwhalexk    2021-08-14        I received an order from kxwhalexk that was missing some information for customs. I reached out, received the necessary info and was able to get the order sent out. Thanks kxwhalexk!

Not exactly sure what he was "trusting" you with here... To give him the correct order information?

Its not your fault as you can't control what Og does, just pointing out that this is incorrect use of the trust system.

OG really built his trust in this forum, thus help him and also his customers to identify his credibility. What a safe first-time experience, indeed! It reminds me of when I bought my own clothing items from my hard-earned bitcoin; unfortunately, I have to convert it to fiat to be used. If some locals offered bitcoin as a direct payment option, I would be happy to choose it.

This is cool. I have never shopped on forums or on the Internet. This short sleeve is very affordable and very personal. I think once this kind of thing starts, there will be a second time. I look forward to your next shopping sharing. This It's a great experience. It crosses national borders and has reality and virtuality. I think I can try it too.

We deserve to try buying with bitcoin, if there is an opportunity to buy then do it immediately, I hope the transaction fees can be cheaper so that users are more active to buying with bitcoin, and if we use altcoins for example TRON maybe the transaction fee is only 10% of the transaction fee bitcoin.
Buying something on the internet using bitcoin will be another experience because we will see how the transaction process is finished. I think the fees will always change following the network traffic, but now, the fees are not too high. Not many websites have Tron as the payment so you need to find out the other website. I heard that Bitpay has many coins as an option but I do not know about the other sites.

Yes, my first Bitcoin purchase was just as interesting..

I just got into Bitcoin, when I saw an advertisement for a beautiful Butterfly bracelet that was made from a real Butterfly and covered in places with 24 Carat Gold. The price was very reasonable ...so I bought one. It was months later, when I received the bracelet through a courier service and I had to pay additional import duties to receive it.

The Gold on the bracelet looked "fake" ...so I took it to a jewelry shop and I asked them to test it. Their response.... "The bracelet cannot be tested, because the whole thing was covered with an epoxy coating and if you crack the coating... then the whole thing will break.

A few months after that... someone in the household broke the wing by accident and I took it to the jewelry shop again.... they tested it and it turned out that it was just Gold paint.  Roll Eyes   (Very good scam... selling a product that cannot be tested until it's broken)  Roll Eyes

Such an experience is unforgettable. I have never used Bitcoin to buy anything since I was exposed to the field of encryption. There is no way to avoid revealing the address and contact information when shopping online, but I think this is reasonable and acceptable. This is the case in the Internet age, but a month is a bit long, but I think it is worth it. Bitcoin is now accepted in more and more fields, allowing crypto enthusiasts to pay online and offline. This experience should make you like Bitcoin more.

Yes, nice story. I liked it as well as OgNasty's post to celebrate its anniversary. The only thing I would say to the OP, is that I wouldn't make a habit of spending a lot of Bitcoin. Better to save it, the time will come to spend Bitcoin in the future. You may regret spending much Bitcoin in the future, think about the guy who spent 10,000 Bitcoin to buy pizzas.

In fact, there is no need to worry. If the author has 1,000 bitcoins, I believe he will not spend bitcoins to complete a shopping, because his purpose is to accumulate the number of bitcoins, not to reduce it. But I very much hope that there will be more and more application scenarios of this kind. This is a respect for Bitcoin and a wish for the future of Bitcoin.



The bitcoin function is very useful if it is used for shopping or peer to peer transactions occur, if all users are actively using bitcoin then the price increase will occur very naturally and not easily drop like now. shopping using bitcoin is worth following.

I want to fully record my first Bitcoin shopping experience

About a month or so, I joined the Bitcointalk.

At the beginning, I only acted in the Bitcoin sector and the Beginners & Help sector.

One day, I read the post as usual.And I found this post by accident:[Merit] Hey Bitcoiners! Can You Send Encrypted Messages?I have to say that this really sparked my interest. What a cool thing to send encrypted messages.After 3 attempts, I finally sent the encrypted message to OgNasty correctly.(This encrypted message task made me know the name OgNasty for the first time.)

Then I learned from Og’s My 10 Year Bitcointalk Anniversary that he has an online store.Since this is my first time shopping with Bitcoin. I ended up with the cheapest item in his store, a T-shirt.



But due to a mistake in my operation, I forgot to fill in my contact information.Fortunately, Og sent me an email, I sent him the correct address.

A month later, I received a call from the courier. I was curious at the time because I had not bought anything recently (I have forgotten that I bought this T-shirt 1 month ago.)
Really surprised when I got the package.



This is my T-shirt, there are OgNasty stickers and postcards in the package.

This is a shopping experience full of surprises, and also my first Bitcoin shopping experience.This t-shirt is cool!


edit:kryptqnick asked some interesting questions, these questions will make this topic more complete, so I plan to add them to my topic.
how much was the transaction fee?were there any additional fees from the store?
transaction fee: 0.0002412BTC.
T-shirt: 0.0004
Courier fees:0.0007
Quote
Was it a payment method (like BitPay) or was it a BTC address to transfer BTC to?
Transfer bitcoin directly to his Bitcoin address, without using any third-party platform.

Quote
Was the price fixed in BTC or in USD, and did you win or lose due to volatility?
The price of T-shirts is fixed at 0.0004 BTC, and the price of international express delivery is fixed at 0.0007 BTC.In other words, this store is priced in bitcoin,has nothing to do with the dollar.

If you want to convert it into U.S. dollars, obviously I am profitable. Because the price of btc a month ago was lower than it is now

Quote
Personal experience like yours is valuable and useful to motivate others.
I am enjoying this Bitcoin shopping, this T-shirt means a lot to me. Cheesy

Quote
I'm surprised that you decided to use Bitcoin as money so soon after getting on the forum, as most new people are only here to get rich.
This may have something to do with my own personality, I enjoy trying new things.







This is a nice thread bro your so lucky that you get that T-shirt for that price of bitcoin cool design its very unique. If I were you I will definitely make that thing as a remembrance and keep it for a long time. Hope one day I can shopping too and buy stuffs using bitcoin.

Just looked up the website, it looks pretty outdated and simple (I guess it's on purpose) and it reminded me of good ol' internet times, where most websites had this simple layout and nothing more. I almost thought that this order was conducted 10 years ago, until I saw the website myself.

It was a pleasure sharing your experience, OP, I hadn't heard of this website nor the Nastyfans club before.
Nasty fan clubs is created by our own OgNasty who is a member here and one of the earliest members in the Bitcoin market.

@OP It is good to hear about your experience, i already purchased online a few years back and for you hopefully it was a good experience as the transaction charges are really low for months and this is the perfect situation if you want to make some trades.

Happy for you to buy so much thing with Bitcoin

But i wish i can buy things with Bitcoin also. Because my country doesn’t support bitcoin as a legalized money. Further, it is considered as a crime to work with online currenices.

It's a story that really feels a lot better. I have been working on Bitcoin for a long time but to date no shopping has been done with this Bitcoin. However, you paid with bitcoin and you did the shoppingIt's a story that really feels a lot better.This seems like a very strange thing to me. I sincerely thank you on my behalf for projecting such an image in our society.However, we are all very interested in shopping with Bitcoin one day.
don't be discouraged, everyone has a different history, and the op experience is invaluable indeed. After all, the function of btc is not only as a means of payment, it can also be an investment tool and trading commodity, so if you have assets in btc then you should also be proud.
I don't plan to be able to make purchases with btc, it's just a matter of passion, because making payments with paper money or e-money is still very effective. for me, btc is more effective for investment tool and trading commodity. another reason is because my country doesn't legalize crypto payments.
