Confused About the Price

Text on the meme

How much ?? What is that? $10? $9.50?

What it means

A group of armed soldiers in a dusty market ask a vendor about the price of an item, then look increasingly confused when trying to understand the answer. The joke is used as a reaction to absurdly complicated bargaining, uncertainty, or being unable to tell how much something costs.
