Order a iphone case on newegg just now.  Is this real goods?

No matter what it is, as long as you bought something that you can touch, it is called "physical good". It's good that you actually bought it from NewEgg. This will increase their sales from Bitcoiner and continue to accept Bitcoin.

So sad! This profile does not appear as the #1 result (on anonymous) Google searches anymore.

Time to be active on the crypto forums again? Proud to be one of the few Legendary members of the Sparkie Red Dot!

Gonna put this on my resume if I ever join a cryptocurrency/blockchain industry!

Yeah, but I guess the op mean more by "buying face to face".

I'm looking for the best way to keep my bitcoins growing.

No I have not used bitcoin as a fiat currency for physical goods. I just used bitcoin for buying online services. Other than that I have not spent any bitcoins I earned. In my view bitcoin as investment for retirement. So spemding for real goods or online goods are not good idea by this time itself.

Well I've used my bitcoin to pay for a meal. Also i remember i paid in bitcoin to engage some seo work. The same amount equivalent in dollar was actually lower as the receiver do not mind getting less as long as he receives bitcoin.

Never used Bitcoin to buy physical goods before. The closest I got to was to buying some drinks from a supermarket using Visa funded with Bitcoin. There isn't much adoption rate in larger supermarkets around here and debit cards would be the best choice. I bought almost everything online using Bitcoin though, it's much cheaper than other payment methods.

It was my mum's birthday yesterday. And I wanted to buy a birthday cake for her, but when I reached the bread shop, I realized I forgot carrying my wallet and I had only a few bucks in my pocket.  I tried to talk to the boss of the shop if I can pay by bitcoin, to my surprise, she said YES and finally I paid the cake by bitcoin.  Grin

This is my first time to use BTC as real money buying a real physical goods. 

As a bitcoiner, using BTC online is very common.  Have you ever used Bitcoin as Real money to buy Real/physical goods?  plz share your experience.   Wink



No, so far I haven't.

I am trying to sell my physical external hdd for bitcoins.
But i have thought also to buy things i checked some thread in Goods subforum.
But the price seems a bit high or the shipping cost a fortune, not a good time now.
