Recently, I stopped over at Goodwill in Oshkosh WI. My original goal there was to find furniture for my new Dorm room. Instead, I found a virtual boy.

Now, I don't know how to decide the rarity on this particular one because it is *special*. This one is attached to the 3 foot retail store stand. It has the key (to remove system from stand) and all the ads still in near perfect condition. On the top is a big red 3d sign that says "Virtual Boy". When you plug in the stand, the light on the sign turns on and reflects itself over and over to look 3 dimensional.

Also, with the system came Red Alarm: the demo version. It is in good condition and still works. I just checked DP's rarity guide and it sais this game has an 8 rating for rareness. Also, DP thinks it is worth $100. I just crapped my pants typing that X_x .

So, if anyone knows anything about the worth of this entire setup I have could u let me know? I don't plan on selling it but Im curious to see how good of a find I landed. Besides, it makes a hell of a decoration for my room!

wow, store display at goodwill?

id say a couple hundred anyway. ebay ranges all over the board, but id bet upper end price would be $300+ maybe up to $500...this is really a wild guess, as i cant recall ever actually seeing one sell....

anyone else?
