Have You seen a pastel albino? They look like a high contrast Albino nothing more.. So I would think it looks like a albino spider,who would pay that much for one? Now how about a Coral bumble bee or a Caramel glow bee.. Those would be something.

Albino bumblebee is not a difficult combo. Two generations if you can start with a bumblebee and an albino. Three generations if you have to start with a spider and a pastel and make bumblebee first.

First generation: bumblebee x albino -->
1/4 normal-looking het albino
1/4 pastel het albino
1/4 spider het albino
1/4 bumblebee het albino

Second generation: bumblebee het albino x albino -->
1/8 normal-looking het albino
1/8 pastel het albino
1/8 spider het albino
1/8 bumblebee het albino
1/8 albino
1/8 pastel albino
1/8 spider albino
1/8 bumblebee albino
