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. There is always a niche.
