Here is the buy/selling section

Yes, I've seen it. But all of these goods could also be bought with fiat currencies. I was wondering whether there were people using bitcoins to buy certain goods because it was easier, not just for the novelty of it.

EDIT: to show that I've actually done my research, here are some real uses for bitcoin that I have thought of:

Donating to Wikileaks is easier with bitcoins, because it is nearly impossible using fiat currencies
Transferring money quickly and cheaply to a friend in another country
Easily buying products online that are not sold in the users home currency, especially due to fraud concerns
Micropayments

Are there any more I haven't thought of?
