This is pretty big news guys;

CEX (computer exchange) are now accepting bitcoin. They are a pretty big deal here in the UK.

Not only that though but you can also GET bitcoin instead of cash for your old phones games etc. Most merchant adoption we see has a depressive action on the market but with this if they pay out more in Bitcoin than they get in they will actually have to buy BTC! Even if they dont they wont be selling all the BTC they get like other places. Theoretically the majority of the business could be done in BTC.

EDIT: on top of that they are also trialing a store in Scotland as a pound free store and it will have Scotlands first bitcoin atm.

Wow, that's great news! I was wondering when they would accept BTC as payments, once they added the option to sell goods for it I figured it was only a matter of time. I'm interested to see if it attracts customers who wouldn't normally buy BTC through Localbitcoins (due to not having a bank account, or other reasons), but may feel tempted if they can sell their (or other peoples Roll Eyes) gadgets for it.
