I have a chance to buy a limited edition Strat that is Sea Foam Green with matching head stock. based on the serial numbr it was made in 2009, owner tells me that this was a limited run, with only 250 of each color made. My question is are these a good collectible and if so what is a good price, or better yet what have you seen them sell for.
Thanks

I just looked it up so I deleted my first post.

After the mid-2009 price DECREASE these limited colors street for $100 more than the regular color American Standards. There are still a few of these hanging around the stores new.

I wouldn't attach any real collectability to them; used they might bring say $50 more than a regular color unless you just had to have that particular color.

Besides Sea Foam Green these were made in Fiesta Red and Daphne Blue.

Thanks, for the input, I liked the color, but based on what I've found out on my own, an the above opinion I think I'll stick with the regular strats. I just thought that with them being a limited edition they might be a good collectible. Live and learn.
Thanks again

IMO fender makes way to many limited runs to ever be a collector....if you get one all its saying is you have one that isnt mass produced....if you are looking to invest the best thing to do is put money in stocks or CDs

never seemed that rare to me because they seemed like they would never sell. If they were custom color or color only made for that guitar i would like it but it was just the same guitar with the same paint and a slightly different label and price on it.
