1.15btc = $18.1x1.15 = $20.815

Can't I buy these 8gb Sandisk Cruisers for $7.42 + $5.85 shipping on Amazon

http://www.amazon.com/SanDisk-Cruzer-Flash-Drive-SDCZ36-008G-A11/dp/B001T9CTRS

Total of 13.37, basically saving me $7.445.

Is your service really worth a 35.76% transaction fee to get a product from bitcoins?

I'll have to do some more comparison shopping in the future to make sure that I am offering a better deal than places like Amazon - for this product that was clearly not the case - my cost wasn't as low as that on Amazon in this instance. I do try to offer the best deal I can and my profit margin really is minimal (just did the math for the last 2 weeks of sales, and while I have plenty of sales, the profit margin is just good enough to leave it as a Bitcoin investment instead of actually making any money off of it currently).

I hope you will check the site out again in the future for hopefully better deals :)
