The reason I suggested a physical good (tea) rather than a digital good is because the digital market is already over saturated. Not only are there forum members selling steam games and keys, and PlayStation codes; they are also a number of homebrew websites, and after all that, you have to compete with Gyft. Better a thing only you can provide, like a hand crafted thing (art, craft, food even) or cater to a niche (specializing in having a wide selection of funny trucker hats, for example). That way you can order in bulk, and make that markup.
There is always a niche.
Always sell what you can mark up the most.
Know your target demographic. You are dealing with techno savvy folks for the most part. Wouldn't do to sell them hamburgers, you could sell those to anyone. Sell them USB cables even. But sell something relevant to the target.
Might follow my own advice about that tea,. Was an afterthought, but I see some merit in it if done right. Gonna clam up about it now.
On second thought, don't sell tea.
The only bad thing is that it's hard to look for a customer that may want your tea. Like what's special about it? I can get tea in the market if you can't specify things that may be different from others.

I can get tea in the market if you can't specify things that may be different from others. You shouldn't have to look for customers. It's a webshop. Tea , and coffee are the most popular beverages in the world. If you drank tea, you would know that it's hard to get high quality tea unless you live in a culture that openly drinks tea. This is why they sell tea at Starbucks. Brewed, and in bags. When you do find decent tea, in places like whole foods or Lowe's foods, you pay a lot for it. And the selection sucks. Also, tencho savvy consumers are big in caffeine. Look at the popularity of energy drink products with that demographic. I'm not stuck on tea, but I am stuck on the OP offering a cheap product that can be easily sourced, and stocking many different types of said product, so that his shop becomes a known place to purchase a variety of said niche products. What I'm saying is, he should specialize. He could do hats. Or lighters. Or custom computer hardware peripherals. But you notice all my suggestions are products that are niche, and usually marked up. And things that bitcoin users use. Trust and believe, there are a lot of tea drinkers on this forum. Also, understand that tea goes beyond the Lipton at Walmart.

Unless you find an Asian specialty store, or go online. ) But leave this idea alone. I want that.

maybe you should create an online store computer equipment, or android that accept payment via bitcoin, I think bitcoin users will see your place as an excellent place to spend their bitcoin. well, you know, bitcoin users need a pc or android good, so maybe they'll go to your shop

Computer equipment seems to be a very good shop in this time. A few weeks ago I tried to order a PC and I was looking for a bitcoin payment accepted shop. Guess what, in my region (europe) there was none available.

The best idea for an online shop is selling games and streaming videos or something. There are so many people who loved to game and dont want to spent there gold into it they have bitcoins where they dont do anything with. So they can buy games at your site and videos that would be very great trust me.

hi,
just had a small idea: what if bitcoin shops had this feature: buy this item if its cheaper than XBTC? this would include BTC/USD conversation and product price changes.
the customer could deposit the money (and maybe withdraw it in case that after some time when his target isnt reached he doesnt want it anymore)
IMHO this should enable shops to plan better which should lead to cheaper prices (well at least for big shops. not sure if there are any atm)
please share your opinions ;-)
Like your idea but it is only for those who are good in strategies.other will not not like it and take it only as scam to their deposits.

There are already a couple webshops that allow to pay with Bitcoin I think that you should look at them first so you can get some ideas of those webshops. It will help you because it is hard to start something from nothing.

If you need open online shop for bitcoin means just try to put big investment and open one Ecommerce site which can accepts bitcoin as payment and payment gateway. If you want do online shopping means try to check the sites by Google it.

There are many bitcoin shops that are online and many of them sell different stuff you have some where you can pc parts you can buy clothes with them and many other. But most of the site you will not know about I think that more popular stores need to make use of bitcoin.

Yes, this confusion will persist as long as the big market giants starts accepting bitcoin payments whereas the currently accepting bitcoins shops grows similar to big market giants so that each and every bitcoiner will start using them. Till then, the gap between finding bitcoin accepting shops and unable to find bitcoin option may trouble us frequently.

Adoption would really increase in the future on which we wont have any had a hard time on searching on this merchants.

Bitcoin can be used in any shop whether it offers computer related services or not. I think the best way to go is use FIaT and bitcoins side by side as a payment method. This will provide the most fruitful results.

Well the fact that these stores are still not accepting bitcoin I think we should need to focus more with the adoption and once the adoption did happened already. Then those online stores will just come up because they are going to see that bitcoin is going to be a great payment processor and currency if they are going to use it for payment.

If we want to make online shops start accepting BTC as a payment method, we need to make more people start using BTCs first. If the shops and stores see that there is a large number of people and a lot of profit to be made with Bitcoins by those people, they surely will start accepting Bitcoins. But I think the actual number of Bitcoin users isn't enough, more people must join crypto-currencies and forum like this one.

This is just about the inline shop but if you wanna for asking me, i more loving for answering why i need waiting for over 1 weeks just buying a tea or coffe from the online shop? I guess this is about the online shop and just think for shipping the food into the spesific place there are a high risk for that, if in the half of the way the food are very weakness for get a broken. I never wanna for selling a food rather than just get a lot of the complaints from my customer.

Lol what !? What did I just read even? Buy an item if it is cheaper then xbtc ? What in the hell does that mean ? Is this some sort of search filter option for finding what you can afford ? Some sort of saving technique ? I dont know how this will lead to cheaper prices or help the shops though. What do you mean when the customers target is not reached ? Are you saying it is like a wish list ?

There have been quite a few successful Bitcoin sites that use drop shipping for all or most of their merchandise. There is less margin per item but near zero startup costs.
