Title: Is there a service that lets me sell digital goods by Bitcoin?
Post by: film2240 on December 13, 2011, 12:48:00 AM
Hi,
I was looking at services that let me sell digital goods for bitcoins?The problem I'm having is this:
1.The easy to use ones (2 so far) have closed down
2.The remaining ones are too complex for users like me who can only run an html based blog on wordpress.com

Is there a site that lets me sell digital goods for bitcoins that do the following:
1.Add a buy button or simple link to my blog which then directs the user to the relevant site that sells it
2.lets the user download only when he has paid up
3.Lets me set the price
4.lets me upload files easily

thank you

Thanks for the help guys.my digital items are on sale now.one piece of artwork,stock photos and a video file.

All available from this link:
http://film2240.wordpress.com/2011/12/13/for-salephotosvideo-and-artwork/

The products are available from this link.Click on the respective links to find out pricing and preview information before buying.I wasn't show what kind of prices are expected off media items so I just made guesses.If it seems too high,let me know and I'll amend (lower) it.If too low then the price will be adjusted.

I'm new to selling media items.

Issue I had with Bitcoinservices.co.uk was when I tried logging in with correct password,I get error saying it's incorrect.I register everytime to just gain access to my files.Theres no password recovery feature which the devs on that site should really develop if they want to continue having my business and comissions form my business.Devs to bitcoinservices.co.uk,please fix this soon.

Thanks

You might want to check your links. Every one of those four gives me an internal server error.

If you are shipping physical goods and are able to do simple programming, accepting Bitcoins is easy if you just pre-generate yourself a bunch of addresses in advance, and program your website to dispense one of your addresses with each order.

When your website e-mails you, just make sure you include a link to Block Explorer for that specific address(http://www.blockexplorer.com/address/THEADDRESSGOESRIGHTHERE) so when you read the e-mail, you can click and verify payment.

This works better for physical goods than things that require immediate payment, because Block Explorer won't learn about the transaction until it's had confirmations.  But typically you ship physical goods much later anyway, so that delay ends up not being a problem.

Thanks for raising the issue.It will be rectified in the coming days due to testing. :-)

UPDATE:Testing has revealed that all links are dead and this will take longer than expected to rectify as I now need to find a different service that sells e-downloads while having accessible links.This could take me quite a while.
