Research notes
One fetch pass rendered a confusing 'Regular price $0.00 / Sale price $41.00' artifact; a focused re-check confirmed the actual displayed price is $41.00 regular, treated as consistent with sale price shown -- the $0.00 reading is considered a parsing artifact of the page's price template, not a genuine second price disclosed on the page.
