Bitcoin does not work because people do not trust to buy things with bitcoin. I have a site running now for 5 months selling precious metals, made plenty of sales with credit card, bank transfer, no problems but not a single bitcoin purchase!
What is the point in bitcoin again?
May be if you offer other than precious metal, people may rush to buy with bitcoins.
But there is a modern saying among bitcoin community. Only stupids spend bitcoin now itself. So, everybody want to be wise.
