I mainly use my bitcoin for long term investment among which includes buying of electronics materials when the needs comes up for my home or work appliance. My last two transactions with bitcoin payment was for a macbook pro which I had to buy for my kids and a refrigerator for my kitchen. The payemrn process was swift and I look forward to seeing more platforms implementing bitcoin payment.
Thanks for sharing about your own experience of using bitcoin! I hope your kids enjoyed their macbook and that your refrigerator works well. Is there anything that you have in mind, that would've make the experience and use of Bitcoin even better?
I prefer to buy in the online store which has a fast worldwide shipping, good security, have a lot of products, I can have my own page to check my order and my balance, 24/7 online chat that can solve the problem if any. The online store should have promotions or discounts for their customer so that they can attract more customers to come and buy the product. Maybe Amazon or eBay can be a good example for you to build your online store.
Thanks for taking your time and sharing your input on what you think is important when using Bitcoin for online shopping.
Your thoughts are really intersting and i've got som more questions for you!
- Would you pay extra for faster shipping?
- What is the maximum of shipping time for buying something online?( In this case the products will be shipped from another continent most likely. Say you live in Thailand and the stuff ships from america. 2 Weeks? 3 Weeks?)
- What kind of products would you've like to see in a shop that you think have all these features you just mentioned.
Looking forward to read about your answers!
The support is very interactive. Having a live chat support will make the customer feel safer because you can interact anytime that the customer wants and if there are questions or problems regarding the service that they have purchased.
This also gives security that your business wants to give a satisfactory service which many customers wants. Because, you are there to answer queries and to give assurance that your customer is doing good. Another one is the legitimacy of the operator, the transparency of the people working behind.
Thanks for sharing! These things are really important for making a website trustworthy.
Well if you are buying stuff online with BTC then the most important thing to make sure the items you buy are going to reach to your address. If its not delivered to your doorstep then you made it wrong buying to a non trusted ecommerce site.
Its best to just buy to ecommerce website that had been reviewed many times by bitcoin users to which they have bought to these sellers.
Yes exactly, why do you think people are afraid of using bitcoins with online stores that accepts them? What do you think would make you feel safe when sending Bitcoin to a website that will send you some BTC socks?(Just an example).
What's the most important thing for you if you started to buy things online with bitcoin?
Personally, i would be satisfied if:
- i have full control of my funds once deposited in my balance account within the platform. Maybe you can let users create new wallets (seeds) encrypted in the blockchain. Didn't see this option before but i think it's technically possible.
- i can keep anonymous by using bitcoin. It means that the platform won't ask me to verify my identity and the shipping address will only provided to the shipper.
I really like your idea of having your balance within the platform. I've just spent my whole evening on looking into on how this would've been possible in the reality. If you have any tips, please let me know!
Regarding on being anonymous when using Bitcoin in this online store. Do you mean that only the shipper should know you adress? Please explain more in depth.
BTCTo all of you! Thank you so much for taking your time and for sharing your thoughts on this.Hope you all have a nice day!
