http://satoshistyle.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/ss1.jpgHi and welcome to Satoshi Style.
What is Satoshi Style?Satoshi Style is a lifestyle store for buying or procuring lifestyle related products. We offer direct sales of products as well as drop shipping to various parts of the world.
What is our background?I am an architect ( Yes I have a full time job). I also do product design as hobby, craft oriented product design, the other two are web developers new to bitcoin, but getting updated everyday. Hoping to build new services. I am the person with the ideas. I am working hands on with this initially, since I would like to build it in a nice controlled manner.
How does it work ?We shall be giving a list of sites in our product listings writeup further down.
Step 1 - You can go and choose any product at the listed sites, and PM me about the product you would like to buy, address to be shipped to and type of shipping.
Step 2 - I shall send you a message with all related information and about the amount* to be Escrowed.
Step 3 - As soon as I get confirmation of the escrow from the escrow provider, I shall order the product and ship to you. The product tracking information shall be provided to the escrow service provider as well as the product buyer.
Step 4 - Once you receive the product, you shall confirm receipt of product and the Escrow provider shall settle accounts for it.
IMPORTANT NOTICE : ( control method for BTC price variation for the first 50 sales, after that you shall be paying into a direct settlement )
You order a product worth 10BTC ( BTC/USD = 10$ for calculation). You should always include 10% extra value in BTC into the escrow. So BTC value to be sent to escrow would be 11BTC. Say the product price is 100$. Once the product is received by you, settlement is made in BTC by the escrow provider at the BTC price on Mtgox at that time. The escrow provider shall send me the value in BTC and the rest shall be sent back to the buyer. This method is good for both parties, because if you pay in BTC and the BTC to $ value goes up, you would be making a loss. So basically the final payment is made only after you receive the product.
Also, we shall be providing priority shipping only with tracking information. The terms of conditions for ordering from sites are provided alongwith the site information.
Why first on bitcointalk.org ?The largest amount of users of bitcoin or a large amount of bitcoin users are active on bitcointalk.org . So we felt that the best way to introduce the service would be on a small scale with a direct trust based system to build upon slowly.
What is our strategy ?We shall be intially targeting 50+ sales on bitcointalk.org forum and once we have built a reputation,you shall be able to shop directly from our website, which shall be hosted at
www.satoshistyle.com . We shall be launching a wide variety of 3D printed products in various materials at Satoshi Style when it goes live.....Lots of surprises in stock.
Yes we shall be providing Escrow capabilities for the initial 50 sales that happen at bitcointalk.orgWhere are we based ?We are based out of India. I shall be heading the day to day handling of Satoshi Style till the first 50 products are sold, I have 2 staff on call, to get things going on the site after that. I shall still be available to contact and iron out any issues always.
Who am I ( for now it is being handled by me alone,2 staff working on site backend ) ?It is very easy to find out my details if you search hard enough. I would prefer not to give information directly. Though over time, we shall know each other pretty well.
