I mostly spend my Bitcoin on web hosting and VPS. From time to time I will spend them on physical product. I have bought several (cheap) items from Amazon, these include a gaming mouse and Google Cardboard. Well, I dont think I have ever spend my Bitcoin on weird/crazy stuff. Probably mobile recharge would be the weirdest service I have used my Bitcoin for - not weird enough compared to others :p.

Yeah. Maybe it can still be considered as a crazy buy in 2016 (or 2015). Well, when Google Cardboard go mainstream, it will not be a crazy buy anymore. I bought Cardboard V1 for like 13 USD and now I can buy a V2 for around 5 USD. :(.

I'm paying my webpage domain & hosting with btc :D
I heard about a curious "INT'L GIFT" service, "poop" in a tupper, with good reviews in his thread, hilarious... perfect for a anon revenge or joke.  lol

I bought laser (powerful one) that literally would burn almost anything if pointed at for few seconds and it had a very cool color (not typical red lasers you see) with BTCitcoin (IIRC it was in late 2014) and it was one of the first things I actually bought with BTCitcoin alone.

I bought some spy gear a while ago, for a internal investigation going on in our company. We have had some stock losses and we could not figure out,

how they managed to get it pass our surveillance equipment. So we placed these items in the blind spots, and we caught them. They have been doing

this for a few months, so they took us for a lot of money... but it's solved now.  8)

Not really something crazy, but I once bought a Chinese smartphone for around $150 in Bitcoin. I have sold it here for $250. ;D

Not many crazy things. Mostly bitcoin related stuff. I bought 30 antminer u3 for bitcoins and sold them all for a profit once, probably the craziest thing I ever did with bitcoins.
And I have bought a Coke in a local store.  ::)

I have bought a trezor and vpn services with bitcoin.

Also bought one of those alpha miners that never got delivered... Luckily I was able to sell the order after a few months as I figured it was not going to make ROI (This was before it kept being extended for delivery..)

Told myself never to buy a miner ever again.

I have always converted BTC to fiat here before buying anything because in my country, I don't have any local shops who accept BTC...
Still waiting for those days to come in future, till then I would like to let you know that I purchased cigarettes for BTC once and it was a nice experience...

Well if that is the only thing they have bought, that is also the craziest.

If he had asked if people had bought something crazy, well then the answers would have been fewer, I hope.

Although it is not craziest thing to be bought but to give rough idea about how i use bitcoin in my daily life. I usually use bitcoin to do mobile topup via bitrefill and sometime via xapo wallet.

The craziest thing I've bought with BTC is a comedy film by Seth Rogen which is called The Interview. I waited to see this film and when I heard the film became available for streaming on Netflix I started looking for a pirated copy on the internet because Netflix is not an option where I live. One guy on a forum said he would sell a link for downloading the full movie in good quality for $1 in BTC. So I paid and fortunately the guy was not a scammer.

This movie is crazy(in a good sense) so this is my craziest buy with BTC so far. )

Nothing so far. I've been buying steam games only and other online stuff and in-game credits. Also, bought some phone with my converted bitcoins thanks to a local exchange. Now I'm trying to see whether I can buy a bottle of extra hot chili sauce that I've been eyeing on for a month now with my bitcoins.

I have only purchased wallet cash for my bitcoins and then bought a dress and mobile phone from the online store which earned me a 10% cashback. I could never buy anything directly for my bitcoins as I dont have a bitcoin debit card nor is there any store in my country that accepts bitcoin payments.

I have not bought any craziest thing yet, as in my country its difficult to find merchants that accepts bitcoins for crazy things, as I am not able to buy basic things at a moment, so craziest thing will take time ;D

Really? You bought it at the market price in bitcoins or below the market price? Getting $100 as a profit is really good as very few users here buying mobiles with bitcoins as they prefer to buy gift cards and purchase the mobile directly from Amazon/Ebay.
