How much should I charge for a website like this http://www.gamestop.com/ ?

My client asked me to build an eCommerce website like this one http://www.gamestop.com/.

How much should I charge as a beginner developer who has built 5 websites and been programming for 4 months or so!

I'm sorry no one ever responded to this. Unfortunately I am not very experienced in this area, however I do know Treehouse has a course on Freelancing where I believe they talk about how much you should charge. If there's any tip I could give you, I would suggest using the same method of charge as you did with the other 5 sites. If you have to program more for eCommerce then charge the same amount per amount of code/days worked or however you calculated it with the other four sites. And when in doubt, go cheaper then more expensive. They may always come back to you if they liked your work and your prices. I hope this helps.
