This is really one of the best trolls on this site. I love how he stays in-character at all times.
I love such arguments. This really shows your bag of arguments is empty.

Riiight, so you were just about to send to their bitcoin address when all of a sudden 5000 armed ninjas stormed into your house, grabbed your mouse and made you click the bitpay button, or did you manage to do it all by your big self?
Right, so if a company ABC instructs me on their invoice to pay to account 123456789 in bank XYZ they are not responsible for not delivering the purchase because I paid the bank instead of paying the company?!... Are you kidding? Do I have to have a contract with their bank to pay them?

Not really... Business works through contracts. BitPay is NOT turning my BTC into USD as I don't have any contractual relations with BitPay. BitPay is turning BFL's bitcoins into USD as BFL is a BitPay customer. It is completely up to BFL to decide what % of BTC received with BitPay they want converted into USD!

Derp!

You have a contract with bitpay when you CHOOSE to pay with bitpay.
Derp!

I don't because it is the choice of BFL to use BitPay. My choice is to pay in BTC.

If you paid for your order with 50 BTC, you should get a refund of 50 BTC. If you paid with $1000 USD, you should get a refund of $1000 USD.

Seems pretty obvious to me?

That is not obvious. The obvious thing is to get a refund based on the price and not what currency you paid with. They were priced in USD, and thus any refund :=USD sum.

Why do people close their eyes when they don't like to see the obvious? How many times do I have to tell you that it doesn't matter what is your price tag. It can be changed every second. What matters is the invoice! THE INVOICE IS THE COMMERCIAL DOCUMENT THAT IS BEEN TAKEN INTO CONSIDERATION IN A COURT OF LAW! And BFL invoice clearly shows that it is priced BOTH in BTC and USD!

edit: look closely at his eyes and see what he sees

What he sees in front of him is a herd of ignorant sheep waiting to be fleeced.

But those eyes are evil. He knows he must hurt them emotionally before ripping off their skin for profit. You can see the disgust in his eyes for the, as he calls them, "monumental assholes" that he's about to rape. Muahahaha

Ah. Much better now.

Sure. People arguing the opposite are actually saying that BTC will never be used as a currency without the USD and will always depend on BTC/USD exchange rate. Sounds familiar, huh? They want BTC to be just an extension of the USD?! And those people claim they are part of BTC community!? It is beyond my understanding.

People here can be so immature regarding money
Obviously, you are one of them. This is why my professional advice to you is: Think twice before start selling something in bitcoins. If you can't manage BTC/USD exchange risk you'd better accept only USD. Don't try to pass this exchange risk on to your customers because what they buy is NOT USD but the actual products and services you sell!


sounds like someone over paid in BTC for his mining equipment and knows he will never make that many BTC back again.......
Oh, about 99% of BFL customers are in that category. Fortunately, I'm not a BFL customer.

Well let's flip the possibilities.. and then add in a dash of reasoning..

If someone paid ~2.5 BTC to buy a Jalapeno right now.. and then 3 months from now BTC plunges to 5$ a BTC again..  Would that customer.. or YOU.. be DEMANDING that you get your 2.5BTC back?  
Of course, this is how markets work! By sending my BTC to BFL I'm buying ASICs. I'm not buying USD as BFL speculators want me to believe. If the price of BTC drops to zero the prices of all BFL ASICs will be zero as they'll be completely useless.
