Item Scrapper Data Types missing "Price" #1213

Is there any particular reason that the data types are limited only to Text, Long Text, List, Country and Image for Item Scrappers?

The problem this creates currently is, in my collection, I scrape for the name, image and price. I get back all the values I need, but since "Price" is being treated as a non number, it can't be used to calculate the consolidated price of all items in a collection.

Alternatively I can take the scrapped "Price", manually add a Price field and paste the scrapped price into that, but as you can imagine, that would take a gargantuan amount of time to do manually.

Can we please have the Item Scrapper types selection expanded to include Price?

Figure 1: Missing Data Price Data Type - therefore I can only use "Text"

Figure 2: Each Item uses a standard template which has a Name, Image and Price.

Figure 3: The Collection. This simply applies the above template by default and sorts by price.

Figure 4: Item Details. Name and Image are scraped. So is the Price, but as you can see, its a text field.

Figure 5: Solution is to X the resultant Price field generated by the scraper and manually add a "Price" field. But as I mentioned before, this is highly inefficient.

Figure 6: In the "Collection" page, a consolidated "Price" field appears. But only if the underlying items are using a "Price" field. Which is why having the scraper be able to generate a legitimate price field over a text field would be incredible and efficient.

Thanks for the great application and I'm hoping to see it grow more.
