If one is to build an online auction site using Django, then would it be a good idea to modify an existing CMS? If so, could someone suggest a CMS for the scaffolding?
Thanks

You could starting building with django-cms which is a great CMS that is very much aimed at extensibility. It has a plugin architecture which allows you to integrate your existing (or third party) apps.
If you are making an auction site though, it mightn’t so much be a CMS you are after as much as a app-platform for builing off. So i’d recommend that you have a look at pinax which is a project that allows you to start your own project with a lot of the common requirements of web apps already satisfied (like profiles, email auth, social authentication, commenting etc.)
