how to stop skipping of urls due to error handling

when i am scraping product data from product urls, if i am trying to either see whether a tag is available and if not to use a different tag or if a tag simply isn't found, i don't want it to give a full error for not finding that certain element i want and not scrape and save the rest of the data
how do i avoid this "skipping" over by overriding or changing the natural response of the crawler

i even have tried try catch statements and if else statements to handle a product not being found and nothing works

   let salePrice = await page.$eval('span.price-value', (el) => el.textContent?.trim() || '');
        let newTag = await page.$eval('span.price-ns', (el) => el.textContent?.trim() || '');
        let originalPrice = salePrice;

        if(newTag){
          originalPrice = newTag;
        }else{
          return
        }

   let salePrice = await page.$eval('span.price-value', (el) => el.textContent?.trim() || '');
        let newTag = await page.$eval('span.price-ns', (el) => el.textContent?.trim() || '');
        let originalPrice = salePrice;

        if(newTag){
          originalPrice = newTag;
        }else{
          return
        }
