Good Afternoon,
I was hoping some kind people could offer opinion on accepting BTC at our online store.
We have a family run, online business, selling all manner of media product's, think - Books, DVD's, CD's, vinyl, deleted VHS etc. Currently we have 26,000 individual listings and hold over 100,000 items in stock.
We have been trading for over 10 years on Amazon with 100% positive feedback. Conducting 10'000s of transactions with customer's across the globe. Our office is based in Northern Ireland.
So finally after much debate I have been given the green light to begin accepting bitcoin. The problem is working out the smoothest way to do this!
We have an Amazon shop, it is view able here-
www.amazon.co.uk/shops/red_jet Anyone is welcome to search through our inventory using keywords e.g. a title, an author, an actor, or performer etc to find a particular product.
If happy with your selection just add it to your basket and continue to the checkout page to get a total price including postage and packing.
We price everything in GBP. So a customer wishing to purchase using bitcoin would need to perform two currency conversions.
Firstly from their own currency ($'s or Euro's etc) into GBP sterling using xe.com. Then from sterling into BTC using Mt.Gox's weighted average.
Once done, the customer should email me the details of their chosen product and make payment into red-jets BTC wallet. I will reply email as soon as payment has cleared and advise of a delivery time frame.
We do our post everyday, so you can be assured that your product will arrive promptly and in the condition described.
Would the above method be the smoothest way to conduct business in BTC? It could be deemed rather labor intensive for the the customer.
Any opinions on how to streamline the service would be greatly appreciated and potentially rewarded with some amount of store credit if implemented.
Thank you for taking the time to read. Once again our store can be found here.
