Error with Saturn: That’s what the moon price is all about

Commentator Affenpocke explains what the crazy price is all about in his answer. In his opinion, this is the case a placeholder that always ends up on the price tag if no price is stored in the system.

But why does such a crooked number end up on the note? Another user named “NormalCup7946” has a suspicion. he noticed that the price of 511.29 euros corresponds exactly to 1,000 German marks and is therefore no longer so crooked. It is quite possible that the price placeholder system at Saturn was already in use before the currency changeover and that the amount was only adjusted after the introduction of the euro.
