You probably also paid for it much earlier in the game than the adult one when everything was more expensive anyways in the late 90's and there weren't 900 off the shelf shopping carts available as well as their code on open source groups for free.
You're also no doubt leaving out certain details like the original 39k one paid for integration of the cart with your back end system and product catalogue. Whereas the $500 one came with token integration.
just a guess though, but the fact is you certainly don't pay 36k just "for a shopping cart" in mainstream TODAY, it's like saying you bought a car in 1950 for $300 without taking into account inflation.
