controversial price


Explanation:
Creo que el concepto sólo se puede comprender claramente dentro del contexto (tanto en español como en inglés), así que utilizaría una traducción lo más literal posible en este caso.

Probablemente se trata de un concepto que se utiliza a lo largo de un contrato y se define allí mismo.
