This volatile market sure makes it difficult for a merchant to stay competitive. Price of coffee reduced.

A small problem was experienced today during a very short window of time which may have caused an order confirmation email to get lost. If you did not receive a confirmation email for your order, please send me a message via our contact page so that you may track and confirm your order. Thanks and I promise not to bump my own thread anymore.

Amazing to cut prices so deep so fast! This Bitcoin thing is crazy. It's nice to have a new coffee merchant, the old one had an attitude.

The huge jump in BTC/USD exchange wasn't the only factor. I'm actually taking a loss right now, but I have several reasons for doing so: - I'm trying to build a solid customer base and figure cheap prices for premium goods is one way to do it.
- I'm optimistic that the bitcoins I receive will continue to increase in value.
- I figure it's better PR to adjust prices as rarely as possible and this should give me some time before it's necessary to do it again (but I wouldn't mind continuous BTC growth!).

Yeah, I hear too much coffee can do that to some people.

I like the idea, and may order from you soon but just as a suggestion I think you need to make your page a little more appealing. Put some pictures of tasty ground coffee beans, explain the flavor of the specific bean... something right away to at least give me an idea of what I'm buying.

Do you sell any whole beans? I rather grind them at home.

Suggestions implemented! I'll continue to tweak the site as time permits. I'm dying, that was great. Where did it come from? Someone linked to it at BTCBubble and I stole it. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) Do you sell any whole beans? I rather grind them at home.

Bookmarked. Thanks for sharing and taking part in the BTC market.
+1 on whole bean request -- I'll make a purchase once they arrive. Also think you should remove the login box and move at least the cart display to the right where it (almost?) always is. Otherwise, site design is very slick. Good luck!

The login box was indeed superfluous, so it's gone. Does the sidebar being on the left really matter?

Not so much, just confuses me. I kept looking to the right and realizing it was on the left. Could just be the alcohol ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

edd, I'm likely to order from you if you start offering Ethiopian coffee or something with a similar flavor.

I'll be expanding my selection very shortly. I found a local roaster and I hear good things about them. Expect a lot of activiy at the site over the next few days.
