It would be better if you post your projects at websites like http://definitivelab.com/
and ask all web designers to bid for your project, whoever bids less and has got good reputation, you may give the project to that web designer.

Not sure about the rates in Boston.
But in general it depends on the quality of the website that you want to build. Is it a Walmart or is it Harrods?
Do you want a simple solution like ecrator or a turnkey solution?
How often do your prices and inventory change?
Have you already got advertisement quality images of your products that will you feel show your products properly.
Just a few things to think about.

A site like what you want would run about $2000 – $2500. It will take about 4-6 weeks. It would include everything you need except for a merchant account. Check out this site for any more information you need.http://www.fullcreations.com/

Assuming you want a storefront that uses something like http://www.oscommerce.com and are not too fussy about design, I would estimate a design cost of about $1,500 to $2,000.
Domain, security certificate and payment gateway startup fees (e.g., a credit card processor) will likely run about another $150. Hosting should only cost about $150 per year. Transaction and other bank fees depend on how much you sell and who handles your credit card payments.
You can always spec your project and post it at http://www.rentacoder.com or http://hotjobs.yahoo.com and get a price.
