It is in great shape and works just fine. The only issues are a slightly bent upper security bar over the gameboy unit, and that the volume crackles a little bit when you adjust it. Other than those 2 things, the unit is in great shape. The bigger screen and gameboy unit work just fine.
There are/were 2 others on Ebay, but they have cracks on them or are missing the screen that goes over the mini-tv. From what I've read, the slight mis-alignment on the side is something that was present in all the units.
I don't have the key that came with the unit, but the front is unlocked anyway so you can get to the innards. I don't know if the back needs to be opened for anything than servicing the bigger tv screen.
It comes with a Tetris cartridge, but you can insert any cartridge just like a normal Gameboy.
I've recently seen these on eBay for $4000-$5000 in worse condition and the sellers are charging around $300 for shipping, so I'm setting the price to $4500 obo.

Good luck with the sale, those are awesome! FYI the eBay ones have been up there forever and have had no monvement at the 4k price. I am curious to see what a real selling price is for these units. I have always wanted one.
