Are pharmacists aware of the average prices of medications without an NHS prescription?

Basically the title. I went to the pharmacy today to pick up a private prescription and, when I was about to pay, asked the pharmacist what the average price was for the medication. They said they didn’t know until they put it into the system and I should divide the cost by the tablets, so I explained that I wasn’t asking about my specific prescription, but just in general. It became a whole thing (at least in my head), and I just said, “Okay, no worries.” So now I'm just wandering if pharmacists know the average prices of medications.

Thanks in advance!
