The Spree Specials always incite the unknowing into thinking they are a collectors item worth way more than they actually are.

I doesn't hurt when people make bogus additions to Wikipedia like this (check it yourself) "I read it on the internet, it must be true!"

"*The Shasta White/Lollipop Green color combination was only available on the NQ50D Spree Special in Europe and Germany and is very valuable and collectable, reaching prices upwards of $10,000."

That is the biggest problem with Wikipedia, the unknowing, posting incorrect info and rumor as fact. To correct errors like this on Wikipedia is real hard as the system in place is difficult to use.

Or sometimes it is the seller who goes on there and types misinformation to get a higher price for his/her item.

It's called fraud to use false info when advertising.

For me it is called a good tactic to get some money out of a delusional sucker trying to be "smarter" than the seller... fraud or not by your interpretation, is still "legal" and there is the potential that someone might bite the bait, and if not, then it is just a one minute loss of time wasted posting an ad at Craiglist.

Let me add 3 more words...

"American"
"419"
"Stupidity"

Same as a regular Spree in the same condition, possibly $25 more.
