I want to allow the user to combine multiple of those items into one item that can then be sold with its own unique price (which is not necessarily a sum of all the prices of the individual components). What terminology is used to describe this? I'm thinking Bill Of Materials, but that doesn't "feel" quite right.

Ah, that might be a good term to use!

Now who wants to comment on the data design?
