It depends on where you are from.
I go often to Iran for to visit my distributors there.
The cheapest thing is cigarettes comparing to other countries. I am from Istanbul, Turkiye and I bring full bag of cigarettes every time I go there (for personal use).
Electronic prices are not very competitive because most of them are from Dubai and of course people put margin on.
Most of the textile especially home textile goes from Turkiye to Iran.
You can try Iranians carpets but you will need a local person with you to bargin otherwise it will not be cheap.
If you can be more spesific, I will try to help you.

I travel to Iran every year, I am an immigrant from Iran (I am not Persian though). I always but 18 k gold (coins specially), and I never regret it. you can find special deals in the city of Isfahan. which is a beautiful city and worth to visit, distance from Tehran is just 5 hours. You can but rugs and antiques too, I found very interesting pieces and it is much chipper than anywhere else.
computer soft wares, such as photo shop and fonts.
One more thing to add, I hope you don't need it, but if someone need to do plastic surgery, they have the best Plastic surgeons with amazing prices. Happy shopping to you in Iran....

you can buy lots of stuff, very cheap! however, you cannot bring items from foreign countries into the u.s. (i assume you are in the u.s.), for sale, without a license, and last time i checked there is a "personal trade embargo" with Iran right now. you can still bring certain very specific items back, but if you are caught selling them, you can lose your passport, and end up in jail! sorry!!!

The obvious answer is Persian rugs. Heroin is cheap too.
