For the Virtual Boy fans, gotta love poorly listed items

So here's the auction link, and it looks pretty mundane to the average eye I'm sure.

So a CIB virtual boy for $80, not bad but nothing special either.  I had asked some detailed questions before hand so I knew it was fully complete, but I also knew it came with a bonus game not even mentioned in the listing....

So as you can tell, it's in solid shape.  Looks like it has a the Battery Pack and Tap, were those all included from the factory or purchased separately?  I know the AC adapter was sold separately, that's why I ask.

Of course I asked for nice packaging, and he just threw it in a bigger box with NO PACKING AT ALL.  Yikes, at least the outer box survived a bit.  But the other game managed to survive and arrive nice too...

So go figure.  The game pays for the value of the auction alone.  And that's why it pays to ask questions before bidding!
