An atricle from MSN money places this game at #9 on the list of most expensive games, with one copy reportedly being sold for $7200.
The original owner was a collector of Mr Boston items, having a vast collection of memorabilia including many promotional items like knives. This cartridge has been tested and is in great functioning condition. Aesthetically it is in good condition, but it does have a small tear on the label. Feel free to ask any questions that you may have.
10% of the proceeds will go to benefit the Musella foundation for brain tumor research. If buy it now is used, an additional 200$ will be donated to the Musella foundation. The rest of the proceeds will go towards travel expenses and treatment costs for my dad, whom is battling with brain cancer.

The original BIN he had for it was massively overpriced imo ($4500). Should be interesting to see what this sells for, but I suspect it may not reach reserve.

Oh, I think that might have been the original BIN for the auction as listed. He listed it as BIN only before two weeks ago, at $4500. Unsurprisingly, no takers.

For the records:
Auction with $2900 BIN ended with maximum bid of $1201. Reserve was not met
so item was not sold.
A new auction is now running with a BIN of $1500.

For some unknown reason the auction of Mr. Boston was ended. Let's see when
and where the item shows up, again.
