Hi Chris, 

I don't have an Evergreen-based workaround to offer up. We have a couple of our 
libraries using MarcEdit and I created a task list that copies the price from 
the 020c to our 970p ( our order tag subfield for estimated price), then 
deletes the dollar sign from the copied version of the price. It's a slick way 
to automate the process. The libraries are using them for records saved using 
the Amazon to MARC converter that Elaine Hardy mentioned on this list a couple 
of months ago. 

Anyway, unless someone has given you a better idea, the MarcEdit task list 
might be worth looking into.
