If you plan to sell those bitcoins back immediately after you receive them for items sold then i will advice you not to start at all because you will run at a loss looking at the current instability of bitcoin but if you plan to save the bitcoins received (which i doubt because it will hoard down your business capital) then you stand a chance of making profits in the future.

Personally no. Although it is something I would love to introduce just basically out of my own live for crypto however there still isn't enough demand. I'm not really sure who has to take the initiative in this situation, do vendors have to list in crypto for the customers to come or do the customers need to lobby vendors into accepting crypto. I'm not too sure

a pretty good idea by offering a purchase that can use bitcoin as a means of payment, but I'm not sure that the idea you're using will work smoothly, as most newly opened businesses will experience some upcoming problems, as not everyone intends to buy use bitcoin and you know the cost of bitcoin transaction is quite expensive and may be a lot of consideration to use it as a means of payment, but if you have a strong intention to your establishment, I am sure you can solve problems that will come up to you,

The question is, whether your online shopping site can be sold in a global market or just support the local trading market only? some great sites before you have implemented this kind of thing, but the obstacles faced from the high transaction costs and ultimately the site is not popular around the world.

This is a great idea if you want to start your bitcoin journey. This kind of start in bitcoin is a unique but a pretty much effective one. But the only problem is, bitcoin is only accepted by a group of people who discovered it and accepted it as a currency. If you are going to make bitcoin a choice of payment, maybe it is a good idea, but if you are only going to accept bitcoin, then I think you might encounter some problems.

yes, it sounds good and practical. But is the cost of a transaction that is expensive enough to smooth the business? and as we know the value of bitcoin is unstable, and it changes every second. Is the price of the goods being sold also changed? If true I think this is quite a hassle.

I don't do exchange or sell or buy products for crypto currencies but it is a good idea for earning and save money without losses and crypto currencies are the next generation of money so we can try ideas like this .

I don't even expect anyone to jump on it but I want to get the word out. Bitcoin may not be practical for a smaller item so eth and ltc would also be accepted. There was an article in our paper that someone purchased a 14,000 dollar car with btc for a 3.50 fee. My bank transfers cost more than that

It's up to him if he want to continue his idea about having some extra income here in crypto currencies, everything here is possible and those kind of idea is not new at all. But expect a lot of factor that may putting you in a unexpected situation, just for example is scammer, transaction fee, delivery fee and many more. Don't go for it if you are not sure and don't have enough idea about the crypto community, too many anonymous account.

Well there is no problem in the acceptance of the bitcoin on the international level, also the use of the bitcoin is growing day by day so if someone wants to start some store which will be accepting bitcoin than let’s encourage him and try to accommodate him in the initial phases. At least this will be better for the people from the third world countries as they will be able to afford the good things online with the universal payment system.

Looks like someone just shooted you haha and you couldn't finish the thread properly ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) If you wish to attract attention to your things through the forum, you have to post the thread in "Goods" board with all necessary links and prices.

Ha no not shot I guess my finger slipped while typing. I'm not trying to sell anything here I'm not posting any goods I'd just like to see crypto be used more. I posted the items online in my area sold a number of them but all for fiat no one commented or questioned my notation of accepting crypto

Don't go for it if you are not sure and don't have enough idea about the crypto community, too many anonymous account. Indeed it is their own choice to use bitcoin and how they want to use it, market of bitcoin is high so you have multi choice about it, if you have hopeful that bitcoin will give you profit you can involve it but I think at the time of fall will the best time to start bitcoin business, we can sell a lot of items using bitcoin in market people are accepting bitcoin for everything like they sell electrical object and they sell a lot of other item like we need for daily housing, so get your chance be strong to achieve your goal of life.

It is very good idea to have a small business online that will accept bitcoin as mode of payment. Since we are now on the modern era it is better for us to practise how to use the modern way of payment. As far as I know, in our country we don't have that kind of store so I hope that someday there will be a business like that since it is very convenient.

Already our forum has different section for buying things with bitcoin but it is necessary to use escrows while doing transaction because lot of scammers are there. Or if you want to create a shop or something in your locale it will help the people to know about bitcoin.

i think you also can used this forum to buy or sell your stuff into bitcoin. but the only problem that might every buyer faced is its shipping. how long it takes till they received it or even they will never received it. maybe its fine if your buyer in the same country.

I have to say this: One of the first things I did upon registering at bitcointalk was to try to sell some old Nintendo games--and NO ONE was interested. These were decent games, albeit old ones. And from watching the marketplace section here, it became clear to me that people who are into bitcoin tend to not want to spend it, and I really don't blame them. If they'd spent what I was asking on my video games in 2015, they would have lost out on huge profits.
I don't know about other sites, but it's difficult to sell things for bitcoin here. My impression is that unless it's the dark market, where you want anonymity, there's no reason to spend bitcoin on something you could pay for with fiat. People are generally unwilling to do that, and I've commented in other threads about this over the years. Bitcoin is a much better asset than a real currency. You've got fraud protection on your debit cards, you don't have to pay fees when you spend fiat, there's no long confirmation times, etc. So unless you really need to prevent people from knowing what you're buying, it's not easy to sell things for bitcoin.
Take a look at all the items TheButterZone has tried to sell and can't. All those stamps and things. He keeps bumping threads from quite a while ago, and I think he's having a hard time selling some of the stuff. It would be interesting to see what he has to say about this.

I think this is a great idea. It doesn't only make you earn BTC but also it makes you promote BTC using your business. We need more establishments adapting Bitcoin so that people can experience its benefits and make it progress.
