It's good for Amazon to accept BTC. However, BTCs are considered by the market an investment (asset) and not "cash".

That perception is exactly what we are trying to change with this project.

We need to find ways to make BTC readily available at very cheap (costs) price to the masses.

I disagree a little.  I think at this point there are enough people with BTC, before it can go much further people need to have more places to spend BTC.  Doesn't matter how cheap it is if you can't spend it anywhere   Smiley

Its bitspend copycat scams all around this week.

I understand the skepticism.  Hopefully we can change your mind in the next couple of weeks.

What about the extra postage costs you will have to handle. Do you pay for them?

Not sure what you mean.  We would expect the customer to include the price of shipping when they send us Bitcoin.

Do you want to do a bitspend.net without fees, is that it?

Basically.  Our hope is that eventually our services as a middleman will not be needed because Bitcoin will just be accepted everywhere.  

We are hoping our efforts to increase Bitcoin spending for Amazon and publishing the amount of spending will cause Amazon to see that accepting Bitcoin is a good business decision.

We have no problem with anyone making an honest dollar but we believe that transaction fees give businesses an incentive to not push for widespread acceptance of Bitcoin, since they would lose their income.  We are setting up to avoid that trap.

This is the idea I came here to discuss. http://www.paybit.co/

I have been taking questions in this Reddit thread too.  Would love to answer any questions and help spread the word  http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1a9a07/buy_anything_on_amazon_with_bitcoin_no/

I actually don't consider myself a newbie to BTC but I am definitely new to this forum. I am trying to spread the word on my idea to convince Amazon to accept Bitcoin. I apologize if this is too spammy and I understand if this has to be deleted. 

The very short version is I want to process orders for no transaction fee with Amazon and publicize the amount of orders I process.  I hope to show a large number will convince Amazon that accepting Bitcoins is a good business decision.

The current sign up form is here  http://www.paybit.co/

I have also been answering questions on the BTC subreddit here.  http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1a9a07/buy_anything_on_amazon_with_bitcoin_no/

And I will of course answer any questions here as well.
