description: The Price Estimates endpoint returns an estimated price range for each product offered at a given location. The price estimate is provided as a formatted string with the full price range and the localized currency symbol.

When surge is active for a particular product, its surge_multiplier will be greater than 1, but the price estimate already factors in this multiplier.
