Nintendo Rental Case

[Marshal_Medan]

Today I found an NES at Goodwill for about $7. The odd thing was, it came in a large red plastic carrying case. I did some research and it appears to be a rental case that was given to rental stores by Nintendo in the late 80's. I'd post some pics, but I can't find my digital camera at the moment, so my question is, is this an item that has any value or collectibility?

I don't know much, but I know I love it. That may be all I need to know.

I don't know if the Brookfield Goodwill had an old store owner donate them or something, but I found another one today, in worse shape unfortunately. I'm going to put both on my tradelist if anyone is interested.

Wow, that brings back memories. I wanted to rent an NES system soooooooooooo bad when I was kid. My parents kept turning me down. Found out months later that they got me one for my birthday. Score!
