Oct 6, 2019 at 14:54 comment added Edwin Ashworth 'Of' is probably the most used preposition here, but preference is context-dependent. 'A price on' connotes 'a price set/levied on' (probably not the actual words) and is more seller-orientated. 'The price for' is nuanced less towards the involvement of the seller, and more towards the product (or even buyer). The price for it / for me to get it.
