It wouldn't bother me to hear this as a seller if I was someone who had no pricetags on my merchandise!
If the material was visibly priced, I might sing a different tune. Then, it may be more bothersome depending on which word was emphasized!
"How much would it cost me to own this card?"
Hmm. This guy sounds like he really wants the card. I'm listening...
How much would it cost me to own this card
Well, everything's already priced, as he can see...
How much would it cost me to own this card
Well,
