Trying my first real life sell with a fridge for bitcoin:
http://www.biddingpond.com/item.php?id=337

Big problem: finding a potential buyer living close enough to come (sending a fridge via postal service is not an option).

Let see if it works ;-)

It's  not going to work too well considering there is no mention as to what city the fridge is located.
"The powers of financial capitalism had another far-reaching aim, nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole. This system was to be controlled in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert, by secret agreements arrived at in frequent meetings and conferences. The apex of the systems was to be the Bank for International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland, a private bank owned and controlled by the world's central banks which were themselves private corporations. Each central bank...sought to dominate its government by its ability to control Treasury loans, to manipulate foreign exchanges, to influence the level of economic activity in the country, and to influence cooperative politicians by subsequent economic rewards in the business world."

- Carroll Quigley, CFR member, mentor to Bill Clinton, from 'Tragedy And Hope'

pitty i bought fridge last May and a friend in Bru bought one 3yrs ago. the price seems right

Unfortunatly, it looks like nobody close enough is interested. Relisting it one more day. Hey biddingpond, could you let this offer open for more than a day?

If it doesn't work before the end of the week, I will have to sell it for euros. Not really interesting  Cry

a) they have a fridge already
b) driving distance too big

yes, that's the bad point about my auction: sending a fridge is, well, a bit expensive ;-)

As I had no luck with biddingpond.com, I'm trying bitcoinHop:
http://bitcoinhop.com/auction_details.php?auction_id=100086

The interface is much cleaner and the process of adding an item is a lot more easier.
