In my CS course project this fall, we have to build a little eCommerce app (like Amazon, eBay, etc). We are free to build any type of eCommerce/store app. Since I don't have a preference for what app to build, perhaps it may be easier to decide based on freely available sample data for the store. So is there some freely available data...

I've been asked to set up a site to sell a single product online, and that's all there'll ever be. I don't want a CMS; it's a 4 page site and I'll be doing any admin myself so a CMS is completely unnecessary.
