Try Bitdazzle or Coingig but I think Coingig is closing. Bitdazzle is very user friendly but is limited in terms of what is currently offered there.

The community needs another Bitmit.

Normally I'd say there's a network effect problem, but given the lack of competition, I bet if a reputable person started a Bitmit clone, it would gain a lot of traction. Just, nobody's done it.

Think commercial traction still too low to support model

Higher btc price would likely help

is there any reason why a decentralized bitmit couldn't be created?

ive been highly considering making a clone of it.
I could do the website stuff the issue would be the escrow part.

There's Bitcoinshop.us, but they're just an amazon drop shipping type of business. Not a true marketplace for the people like coingig or bitmit.

There is TheBitcoinClassifieds and also CryptoThrift. Let me know how you go if you decide to list products on there as we are considering listing some of our stock.

From the homepage ...

"Coingig is going to be shutting down, we will allow 2 weeks to process all orders so we can make sure everyone is paid."

I don't know why Bitmit closed or Coingig is heading the same way? I would imagine them to be doing fairly good business even taking just a couple of % of total sales. Bitmit had a lot of volume going through when it was open, Coingig less so but is / was a really nicely laid out site. Maybe due to factors we don't know about like banking issues etc.

Bitdazzle is very nice looking but lacks really basic marketplace features like order management tools and a feedback system etc. They are working on it though.
