...

Here are three who sell gold and other PMs for BTC (with a comment each):

goldsilverbitcoin.com (I bought a 0.25 oz Gold Eagle from here in Dec 2013; look here: http://goo.gl/pJM7UE)

amagimetals.com  (Recommended by a guy who sold me BTC)

agoracommodities.com  (NICE website, apparently offer gold from 0.1 oz to 1 kg, also hard-to-find RHODIUM)

***

Anyone who buys from anyone please let us know how your experience went!

Congratulations, I haven't bought anything with bitcoin other than miners but somehow buying miners doesn't quite have the same feeling as buying something else that is directly or indirectly related to bitcoin i think. I have this personal principle of not spending bitcoins other than on things that can net me back bitcoins, like miners, gambling sites, tradebots etc. But I would love to at least try purchasing a cup of joe as they say from a btc-accepting brick-and-mortar.

Might I recommend a small silver round as your first non-mining related purchase.
There is something about holding a piece of precious metal that makes a person feel good inside. Using your hard earned bitcoin to buy it is fulfilling.
