Someone should buy a car or truck. Maybe not right now! But it's the kind of thing that you don't get a lot of choice with in bitcoin retailers till now, unless you've got Lamborghini or Tesla money, from what I've heard ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) If we could make car dealers think about accepting bitcoin, that adds a nice bit of momentum to the movement. Gotta be attractive to them: instant funds clearing, no fraudulent card purchases, keeping that 3-4% they always hand to the processor, etc.

This is the only one I could find on there: http://www.overstock.com/Sports-Toys/Chevrolet-Racing-Camaro-2-Seater-in-Black/7723691/product.html?searchidx=4

I bought several handbags! So excited! They were on sale 90% off too! And I used the small amount of coin I still had on Gox. That is one way to get rid of coins left there! ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Please could you post a picture of those handbags when you can? ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) Got a few different styles of these. They will make nice gifts too. I know most guys won't care though. http://www.overstock.com/Clothing-Shoes/Handbags/Gigi-Hill,/brand,/111/dept.html

Wow. There are some big spenders on here! I am sure Overstock is surprised by the increase of sales. I hope they start gloating about how it was their greatest move ever taking BTC. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Hopefully more large companies will follow soon.

Same here. I could not find a single fucking thing that I wanted after a couple of minutes looking around ![Sad](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/sad.gif) At least the stuff isn't massively overpriced like most of the previous attempts at selling trinkets for bitcoin. That's welcome progress in my book.

4-footed food wanders around my place every day. A salt lick, powerful flashlight, and a multi-purpose harvesting tool largely covers the bases here. Got it handled.

Overstock seems to cost about 25% more than amazon or ebay.
