			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>I have a blue gameboy advance with the Toys R Us logo on it. It is in disrepair and missing the battery cover, but I don&#039;t know much about it&#039;s value compared to a regular GBA. The fact that it is not in complete working condition right now im sure puts it at almost $0.</p><p>Heck, if the logo thing dosent work out, you still have a MINT GBP</p>]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[<p>Hey there all,</p><p>I&#039;ve been trying to dig up some information on the GBP below (see album link) that I picked up on a business trip to Germany last month, and haven&#039;t had any luck thus far. At an open air market in Stuttgart, I came across the following Blue GBP w/ case, which with 2 games for 30 Euro I figured was a pretty good deal. Only issue is, there is a silkscreened &#039;Thomas &amp; Betts&#039; logo on the bottom left, which isn&#039;t the sort of thing I&#039;ve seen before. A guy that specifically collects GBP immediately PMed me on Reddit, but didn&#039;t respond about possibly finding a legit price somehow.</p><p>Does anyone know anything about this or other branded GBPs, and if not would anyone please point me to a resource where I could look for more info? If someone is interested in buying, I would consider selling with the case or separately (the case is also EUR) - but of course this requires me to be able to first find a legitimate price point to work from.</p><p>Thanks for any interest/info!</p><p><a href="http://imgur.com/a/c9e0M#0" target="_blank">Link: imgur album with more angles and case pic</a><br /><a class="postimg" href="http://i.imgur.com/q3mrG.png" title="http://i.imgur.com/q3mrG.png" id="forum_image_64178251"><img src="http://i.imgur.com/q3mrG.png" /></a></p><p>-Chris</p>]]></content>
