As far as I know they keep 100% Bitcoin

The usefulness of the unqualified analysis is wonderful!

Aren't you also the guy who believes a single bitcoin will be worth a million dollars (give or take) 8 months from now?  Cheesy

As far as I know it will be!

(Actually I said 580k in September but that's wholly irrelevant too!) Wink

I fix broken miners. And make holes in teeth :-)
Newegg is nice, but it's hard sometimes to figure out if they are selling it or one of their resellers (who don't always seem to take Bitcoin) I got snagged on that a few months back, so I use TigerDirect now.

Speaking of which I need to pick up some stuff. Wish Bitcoin wasn't in the dumps as of late...

Seems like a cool way to make BTC more exposed. Maybe parents will see it and take advantage of it

It's just a great deal that they offer, don't think they will keep the Bitcoins.

As far as I know BitPay pays newegg in fiat for every Bitcoin purchase.

Well, with BitPay the merchant can opt to receive a percentage of the sale in Bitcoin, or even all of it. So you can't say for sure.

There was a post on Reddit from one of the BitPay reps who said around 50% of its merchants were keeping some of the money in Bitcoin:

Xbox One Console Assassin's Creed: Unity Bundle + 12-Month Xbox Live Gold Membership + $40 Newegg Gift Card for $349.99 - $101.50 with promo code BITCOINXBOX100 with BitCoin Checkout (Must pay with BitCoins) = $248.49 + $4.99 Shipping = $253.48

This price beats all black friday deals on xbox one. Xbox live = $50, gift card = $40, two games = $40, the console nets out to be $120, cheaper than the previous gen of xbox 360...

I think newegg is longing bitcoin by running promotions like this. I believe more and more retailers, especially IT ones, will store bitcoin and invest their storage into small bitcoin start-ups.
