however whatever exchange you use will take a small % (just like paypal) when you exchange those bitcoins for USD or whatever currency, but at least you aren't getting hit on a per transaction basis. Downsides are probably some % of potential customers who might buy your stuff might not have a clue how to get/use Bitcoin and will either be too un-inclined or dumb to ever figure it out. Plus Bitcoin is extremely volatile right now and will be for the forseeable future. But so long as you aren't depending on the sale of your gear to feed yourself and have the ability to absorb some losses in the short-term if the price of bitcoin takes another dip down to lower levels over a sustained period of time, it can get you back in the game.
