I was a bit surprised to see your name on that list
you know Isemenio the Eyeball is not  even all that rare
when released it sold for $600 while a normal Phantom sold for just under $500
so a buyer had to decide if he wanted to go for the extra $100
many did

the really rare Fidelity Phantom was the Chesster Phantom(model 6124)
very very few of these were made and i dont even think they were offered in the
US

while i am not saying that a 6124 phantom is worth anywhere near $1700 it at
least can be called truly Rare
