This template displays the prices of items with comma formatting, generally for simple templates using tables. For more complicated templates that use a price as part of a calculation, see {{T|GEP}}.

'''<span style="color:red">Warning</span>:''' This template cannot be used when programming calculators, as the values contain commas by default. Instead, one must use {{T|GEP}}. See also {{T|,}}, which performs an identical function to {{T|GEP}}, though the latter remains the preferred option.

==Usage==
{{T|GEPrice|Blue partyhat}} -> {{GEPrice|Blue partyhat}}

To lookup multiples of the output price:

{{T|GEPrice|Blue partyhat|2}} -> {{GEPrice|Blue partyhat|2}}

Sometimes, the multiple used can be a fraction or float number, e.g. 1.33, which often produces long decimals. To make this more friendly to readers, the <code>round</code> can be used:

{{T|GEPrice|Blue partyhat|1/3|<nowiki>round=3</nowiki>}} -> {{GEPrice|Blue partyhat|1/3|round=3}}

===Default===

If you specify an item name that does not exist on the Grand Exchange, a script error is thrown. You can set the <code>dflt</code> to a value that will be returned instead of an error. (NB: if you are looking up prices for a [[:Category:Historical Grand Exchange|historical GE item]], this will return the default before checking if the item is historical.) You could set this to a string to detect the error, or to a number like 0 to allow calculations to continue, ignoring the non-GE item.
<pre>
{{GEPrice|Rainbow partyhat|dflt=error}}

{{GEPrice|Rainbow partyhat|dflt=0}}
</pre>
{{GEPrice|Rainbow partyhat|dflt=error}}

{{GEPrice|Rainbow partyhat|dflt=0}}
