Handbags are that kind of accessory that women like to buy again and again – hence this product has a good potential to get repeat visitors and buyers. Bags are easy to ship and manage – so it is a perfect product for online sales. It is preferable to sell some sort of discounted brand bags – you are guaranteed a high demand.
Google Insights for Search say that bags enjoy stable demand over the last four years and helps us to get an idea about hot products in this niche (just need to remember to occasionally check for new searches on the rise and make sure to find out the cause of the trend):

Description:
I set up StylishBeanBags.co.uk originally to retail funky and cool bean bags to the UK market. Orders taken would be fulfilled by the supplier company who ships the product out!
My plan was to run the business as a dropship operation which it is, and then in the future I would source some bean bags myself to hold as stock and ship them out myself to earn greater profits.
I’ve decided not to continue with the business and am just in the process of setting something else up instead (short attention span!) hence the sale. I have even bought an SSL certificate that I have not had the time to install.
The website used to be hosted elsewhere but there was a £40 monthly hosting fee, so I moved the store to zencart and my own hosting so there would not be the high monthly hosting fee!
The sale includes:
• stylishbeanbags.co.uk domain name (hosted with www.123-reg.co.uk)
• stylishbeanbags.com domain name (hosted with godaddy.com)
• complete website files
• 6 months of hosting with access to the hosting cpanel – you can move the store elsewhere
• all graphic logo files
• SSL certificate
• Dropship supplier details
Most of the sales were generated using Google Adwords. This website has great potential for growth and expansion.
You will need to open a free Godaddy account and 123-reg.co.uk account so I can transfer the domain over to your control.
Revenue Details:
The website works with a UK dropship supplier of beanbags. For each sale the website generates, you will earn 15% of the sales.
I have promoted this site using Adwords and averages £500/month in sales (about $750).
Traffic Details:
Most of the buying traffic comes from Google Adwords.
