Rare 1952 Sparton set only available to military officers

Appraised for $3k? By who, name names or it's BS.
It was probably $30.00 and someone forgot the decimal.

Nice set but probably $100-$150 is more like it, if the CRT is good. As for the Military thing, it might have been sold through the PX, there were some things made specially for the Military Exchanges just like there's stuff made just For Costco with slightly different model numbers, doesn't make it worth a fortune.
