I want to fully record my first Bitcoin shopping experience

About a month or so, I joined the Bitcointalk.

At the beginning, I only acted in the Bitcoin sector and the Beginners & Help sector.

One day, I read the post as usual.And I found this post by accident：[Merit] Hey Bitcoiners! Can You Send Encrypted Messages?I have to say that this really sparked my interest. What a cool thing to send encrypted messages.After 3 attempts, I finally sent the encrypted message to OgNasty correctly.（This encrypted message task made me know the name OgNasty for the first time.）

Then I learned from Og’s My 10 Year Bitcointalk Anniversary that he has an online store.Since this is my first time shopping with Bitcoin. I ended up with the cheapest item in his store, a T-shirt.

But due to a mistake in my operation, I forgot to fill in my contact information.Fortunately, Og sent me an email, I sent him the correct address.

A month later, I received a call from the courier. I was curious at the time because I had not bought anything recently (I have forgotten that I bought this T-shirt 1 month ago.)
Really surprised when I got the package.

This is my T-shirt, there are OgNasty stickers and postcards in the package.

This is a shopping experience full of surprises, and also my first Bitcoin shopping experience.This t-shirt is cool！

edit：kryptqnick asked some interesting questions, these questions will make this topic more complete, so I plan to add them to my topic.

Was it a payment method (like BitPay) or was it a BTC address to transfer BTC to?

Transfer bitcoin directly to his Bitcoin address, without using any third-party platform.

Was the price fixed in BTC or in USD, and did you win or lose due to volatility?

The price of T-shirts is fixed at 0.0004 BTC, and the price of international express delivery is fixed at 0.0007 BTC.In other words, this store is priced in bitcoin，has nothing to do with the dollar.

If you want to convert it into U.S. dollars, obviously I am profitable. Because the price of btc a month ago was lower than it is now

Personal experience like yours is valuable and useful to motivate others.

I am enjoying this Bitcoin shopping, this T-shirt means a lot to me. Cheesy

I'm surprised that you decided to use Bitcoin as money so soon after getting on the forum, as most new people are only here to get rich.

This may have something to do with my own personality, I enjoy trying new things.

It's a story that really feels a lot better. I have been working on Bitcoin for a long time but to date no shopping has been done with this Bitcoin. However, you paid with bitcoin and you did the shoppingIt's a story that really feels a lot better.This seems like a very strange thing to me. I sincerely thank you on my behalf for projecting such an image in our society.However, we are all very interested in shopping with Bitcoin one day.
