what datatype is your price column? it looks like char, should probably be some numeric type, probably decimal.

Check if the results are orderd ok when you do:

order by CAST(price as DECIMAL(10,2))

If so consider changing the datatype of your price column (if you don't, calculations are bound to become messed up too)
