This paper investigates an RIS-assisted mobile edge computing (MEC) system without reliable direct links between users and base stations (BSs). Users offload tasks to BSs through reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS)-reflected links, where offloading decisions, service prices, and RIS-assisted transmission quality are tightly coupled. We formulate a joint design problem that considers task latency, transmission energy consumption, service pricing, BS computing constraints, and RIS phase-shift constraints. The RIS phase shifts are first optimized to improve the effective cascaded channel gain. Then, a distributed price-negotiation-based offloading mechanism is developed to coordinate user association and service pricing under channel-dependent utilities. Analysis and simulations show that the proposed algorithm converges within a finite number of iterations and achieves a balanced tradeoff between user utility and BS revenue.
