RELATED QUESTION: Have you ever BOUGHT any music off Bandcamp?

Big fat yes. I've bought both digital files in .FLAC format, and physical copies of quite a few records. At the moment, I'm waiting for my super-deluxe 2 LP limited edition of Chrysta Bell's album, "This Train"; Tatsuya Yoshida's "Ruins Alone"; Seijiro Murayama's "Solos"; and Jessica Bailiff's "Old Things", all of them ordered through Bandcamp. Not the first time I've spent some money over there, either. If you are questioning the actual usefulness of Bandcamp as a means to actually sell music in addition to be a medium for free streaming of a whole album, I'd say there have been comments by artists affiliated to Bandcamp which suggest that it actually works (Rivulets, for instance).

I get that streaming=more sales.

Earlier I had wondered if anyone made money, so I was now wondering about the other stage of the prcoess.

I get the feeling sometimes that Bandcamp is musicians buying each other's stuff, circulating the money among themselves. Maybe not.

only a few things, if I like something enough to pay for it I like to get a phsyical product like vinyl, cassette or cd but on rare occasions I have payed for flac/mp3's...

Not exactly. Independent (or even mainstream) artists are not the only ones using Bandcamp; some labels are, too: Three Lobed Recordings, Morctapes, Carbon Records, Chrome Peeler Records, Electric Cowbell Records, and ugEXPLODE, all have some awesome stuff from their catalog up on Bandcamp. In adittion, most of the positive comments posted on bandcamp's testimonials page come from music fans or users rather than from the artists themselves.
