I'm trying to understand the following phrase at the 10 second mark of this
commercial.

だけど...something...はもっていません

It sounds like だけどお値段はもっていません。＝ However, we don't have prices??

This doesn't make much sense, though.

What is the original phrase and what does it mean? Also, is it correct to
translate 盛り as "style" in this context?

question
translation slang spoken-language
understanding what sounds like 「だけどお値段はもっていません。」
It says だけどお値段は盛ってません. 持つ is not relevant, and there is also a difference in
accent (盛ってる【LLHH】 vs 持ってる【HHLL】).

[盛る has various meanings](https://jisho.org/search/%E7%9B%9B%E3%82%8B), but
the following is relevant in this ad:

  * to top with; to place something as a topping
  * to exaggerate; to blow up; to aggressively decorate (hairstyle, selfie, etc)

The latter is a relatively new slang usage. See [this
article](https://www.yomiuri.co.jp/fukayomi/ichiran/20160921-OYT8T50141.html)
for details. [話を盛る (or simply
盛る)](https://thesaurus.weblio.jp/content/%E8%A9%B1%E3%82%92%E7%9B%9B%E3%82%8B)
is a particularly useful slangy expression.

So 懐中電灯盛り and so on means "topped with ～" (their hairstyle is called
[盛り髪](https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E7%9B%9B%E3%82%8A%E9%AB%AA), so there is
another wordplay here). だけどお値段は盛っていません means something like "But the prices
aren't blown up". Note that 値段を盛る itself is not really a common set phrase,
although everyone can understand it as a humorous expression.
