ad un prezzo accessibile


Explanation:
Stilisticamente è la soluzione migliore a mio parere. Sebbene indulge implichi il "concedersi un lusso".

Ti suggerisco questa soluzione, molto usata in italiano, ma che rispetta il significato di ''to indulge'': '' al prezzo che puoi permetterti''.

agree  AdamiAkaPataflo: "che consente di toglierSI" (impersonale) oppure "che vi consente di togliervi" (ci rivolgiamo alla seconda pers. plur.), ma vi-vi non è bello. inoltre direi (per motivi di ritmo, mica per altro) "più di uno sfizio"

  -> Grazie Adami. Hai ragione "togliersi" impersonale è la forma migliore
