English term
"without the price tag"
English to French
Marketing
General / Conversation / Greetings / Letters
This sentence belongs to a Marketing brochure, and describes a printer:
"Everything a small business needs from a colour printer, **without the price tag** "
I just need some help for the last part of it. I have to over-translate it.
Can anybody help ?
Many thanks in advance,
Michèle
J'envisageais qch comme "avec un bon rapport qualité/prix"

English term (edited):
without the price tag
à un prix (très) abordable
Just another option one quite often sees.
The source term is actually used rather oddly here; usually, there is some kind of comparison made, such as "XYZ watch, just like a Rolex, but without the price tag" — but here, there is no such comparison, and as a result the expression rather falls flat.
