    I know nothing about e commerce sites, but most hosting services give you a free shopping cart with a service.

    I'd just go and change the colors of that one and add their images, call it a day.

    Any client that tells you how much your work should cost is going to cause problems down the road, so keep that in mind. Bargaining (like I just did a project that I told them it'd be $5400, they asked if I could do it for $5k and I agreed) is fine and some people will just expect to do it. But to outright say it costs too much, why isn't this guy just hiring someone else? Ask him that - ask him if he is so sure it's not worth much where is he getting his info (if he can answer at all, it'll most likely be a friend of a relative or something stupid like that)?

    Make sure you have a solid contract, with EVERYTHING spelled out (most likely this'll scare him off), so he can't screw you.
