@faustf,

You've been here this long and are still not posting a runnable script to simulate your issue which people can test with.
Wonder whether you will ever learn?

Trying to guess the possible issues and using the provided infos, may I suggest this pattern

'<span class="price">\s*([^<]+)'

If you copy and paste your HTML snippet into a unicode text editor, right after the first span tag but before the CRLF, for some odd reason, there is a U+FEFF (Zero Width Non-Breaking Space/BOM).  So if your snippet of HTML is accurate, that is why your regular expression probably was not finding any matches.  Also, because U+FEFF is a not considered one of the whitespace (\s) regular expression characters, it is why the regular expression supplied by @mikell will not work either.  I'm not sure how the BOM got there, whether it is there in error, or whether it truly is a part of your HTML.  But if it is truly a part of the HTML body, then you will need to handle it in your regular expression.
