I need to make a simple single page WP site to sell 2 t-shirts.I don't need categories, I don't need a search, I don't even need a menu. It will be just a page with some header text, then a pic of each shirt below that. Click on quantity and size then go to checkout.
I tried woocommerce, but without buying a shop editor there is very little I can do to edit the shop page. Tried using elementor to edit it but it keeps telling me it can't load the preview
Is there any way to make a fully functioning online store for 2 items that I don't have to buy a bunch of plugins?
If so could you recommend which plugins? If not, cold you please recommend which combo of plugins would be the least expensive?

thanks..

Welcome to the forums.

One quick and easy way is to use Paypal "Buy now" or Cart buttons. Generate basic code at https://www.paypal.com/buttons/ to your liking then add to your products template. You can then optionally extend it by adding some custom fields to control price, size options etc to dynamically update various values in the Paypal form.

I've used this method many times over the years for clients that need a simple low cost way to sell odd items like you're trying to.

Agree with @BlueDreamer - just display the product with a PayPal button.

If it's just a one page site - why do you even need wordpress?

If you wanna need help with this then  https://rebeliation.com/ has the same thing which will help you for sure. It is a vlone clothing shop.

PayPal will redirect back to whatever url you set up. You then just need to add a download link to that page. The problem is if that url is published elsewhere people can download without paying.

There are ways round this but not with a static page.

Sorry to hijack the thread but I'd be interested to know if this is possible for a download. If someone buys my Font Viewer, I take payment by Paypal but then they need to download it, surely I need PHP or else the download url could just be shared? 

There used to be a few self hosted PHP scripts that did Paypal cart for selling files where the file location was encrypted with time limited links. Can't find one now but have a search around, see what you can find.

Alternatively there are dozens of platforms you can sell through.

An option is https://gumroad.com, it's designed for the type of thing you're describing but they will take a higher cut than PayPal.
