I couldn't find it, maybe I'm searching with wrong words... But somebody out there has to offer the service of buying stuff in exchange for BTC. There's got to be some trusted members of the community doing this, I just can't imagine such a vacuum going unfilled.
I've got some stuff I want to to buy, but there is no source that accepts BTC which sells said products.
Most specifically, LiFePO4 cells, but, some other things now and again. Mostly relating to guns, off-grid, and electric cars.
My first project is an electric car/truck. I'm willing to bet that I can save more money on not buying gas than I would make on holding the BTC. And even if I'm wrong, freedom from the gas gangsters is priceless. Tesla, you say? Way too Big Brother for me. Building my own.
Not in a major rush... Looking for the right people first.
You can find people selling goods for bitcoin here.

Just a friendly reminder, use escrow whenever possible
