JR53899: Price range facet cannot handle locale formatted numbers

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• In many countries, prices are denoted using a comma rather than
  a decimal place for example, ?10.00 vs. ?10,00.
  
  The price range facet in the Aurora starter store does not allow
   end users to specify a comma in the price range. The 'GO'
  button does not display and if this is overwritten, a
  NumberFormatException is thrown from the Solr query
