I have never purchase anything (physical good) at store that accept Bitcoin. I only exchanged my Bitcoin for Amazon Giftcards and than use those Giftcards to buy 1. Google Cardboard and 2. Gaming Mouse (like you!). I am planning to buy a Tablet from Amazon next and if NewEgg Black Friday sales include a cheap (and powerful) graphic card I will also buy from NewEgg. Hopefully one of NewEgg staff read my post and decided to have a big discount on some form of graphic card. I will than be able to make my first purchase (of a physical good) on a Bitcoin accepting site!

You can check on Black Friday, but NewEgg tends to discount more on Cyber Monday, marking down even more what they already marked down and didn't sell on Black Friday.

Thank you for providing me some shopping tips. I am hopping to get the best bang for my money during Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Hopefully they have huge discount.

Congratulations OP on your first Bitcoin purchase! Soon enough you will be maybe able to buy groceries at your local shop. All we need is a but more patience until this thing doesn't get going for real.

Beautiful yeah, try to spend bitcoins as much as you can in your real life. After you can just rebuy on exchange whatever you have spent. In this was you will boost Bitcoin transaction number and adoption.

The abilility of bitcoin to buy grocery in local shops is every bitoiner's dream. It means bitcoin is adopted widely and proved to be useful.

Yeah, that is the dream of every bitcoin user that bitcoins should be widely used and accepted even at the small local shops where we can even buy our daily stuff using bitcoins as a mode of payment, and once it is done, no one can stop bitcoins in becoming a global currency and looking at the popularity of bitcoins I believe that day will come very soon.

Yes there is the real joy when we are using bitcoin the real money for our daily spending. Many bitcoiners just collecting the bitcoin and not believing the usage of it. Once they hit you real bitcoin accepting shop they will come to know the real usage of it.

PM me to buy traffic for your site!

Don't see why dev's should have to do with bitcoin acceptance; there's enough options available for merchants to accept bitcoin, and it's their choice if the don't want to.
Reason for that is still low volume they have from it, so they probably don't want a hassle for few purchases..
Anyways, it good that you are actually using bitcoins, i buy everything i can with it as well, and just like you said; it was done in a matter of seconds.

Well some people are holding bitcoin hoping it get a bigger value ,some people investing a good ammount to play with the volatility of bitcoin to generate income,only big ammounts can do a good income enought to pay their bills.I wanna purchase a cellphone and i hope the new market start to let us pay with bitcoin,but i know industry is scared because it can be worthing 400 now and 320 dollars in 2 minutes ,maybe is why the most shop online dont allow to pay with it.

Congratulations. The more real use of the bitcoin, the better for the bitcoin ecosystem. Bitcoin has to be useful before it is adopted.

If you don't use Bitcoin, it is useless.

I know of only few websites that accept bitcoin payments but none of them ship to my country and hence except a debit card, nothing can really help me. Just wish Amazon accepts bitcoin payment or Flipkart then I can directly make payments online for products.

Do you live in India? The online shopping sector in India is rapidly growing, with intense competition between the major players (ebay.in, amazon.in, snapdeal, flipkart, paytm.etc). And also, the market is not saturated, unlike the case with countries such as China and Japan. You Indians should convince these major players to accept Bitcoin. Tell them that their customer base will increase if they accept BTC.

I just buy gift cards via gyft and use those because you can get a discount. You could also go via purse.io, but I prefer my way.
