Does this sound correct?
Bought something on TigerDirect.com with Bitcoin - $86.88
Was expected to pay a miner fee by Bitcoin QT.   Worked out to $0.05

So I had to pay 5 cents fee on an $87 purchase.

Should we stop saying Bitcoin is free?  I mean ... Smiley

I know - beating a dead horse, but every time I have to pay, I ask myself why I tell people its free.

Nearly free.

Or less then 1/10 of 1%

are both good ways to describe Bitcoin fees.
