Create a new model and populate it with your data and then use that model in your view:

namespace yourProject.ViewModels 
{ 
    public class PriceQueryGroup 
    { 
        public string PriceID { get; set; }      
        public string QueryID { get; set; } 
    } 
}

in your view:

@model IEnumerable<yourProject.ViewModels.PriceQueryGroup>

I hope I have understood your question correctly and that this helps.
