...no, seriously dude, the Start Up Disc alone - no equipment included - seems to be worth over 30 GBP at the bare minimum. I highly doubt you'll find people who'll just give it to you...

I'm in Ye Olde America, so though I do have one (and know a store that has 3 of them...), they wouldn't be much help to you. I only know its worth from browsing a couple sites. It seems to be difficult to find in the UK in general. It definitely wouldn't hurt to ask around, then, though I would also recommend looking up to see if there are any retro game stores and/or pawn shops in your area, see if they got anything. (Probably better to call 'em up if you can) Mom & Pop stores especially would be good, since sometimes they'll be a bit more reasonably priced, at least in this case - I mean seriously, how many people would really be interested in having just the start-up disc? It'd be a tough sell, so maybe they'd lower the price so they can get something from it.

Yes, according to our own RadioShadow: https://www.nintendolife.com/forums/retro/uk_game_boy_player_w...

Bit complicated, though, but if you already have the Freeloader and a TV that's NTSC compatible (Basically, you're using it on a TV that's not really old), then it might be worth it if you don't mind needing to use the Freeloader every time you want to use the GB Player.

US people can't use UK eShop codes, though. Found that out the hard way. If you want a person from the US to give you a disk, you'll have to find something else to trade...not to mention shipping would be expensive...

It depends on the store. Some of them are online only, some of them are retail-only. Some do a bit of both I guess. I just figure it'd be a good starting point/handy list, since again, the GB Player is a bit hard to find, so it's not gonna be easy to get ahold of in General. If I were you, I'd look for the ones you can get to and call them up since online retailers tend to price things rather expensively - you still have a better chance of finding a reasonable price with a brick & morter store.

Is the freeloader you have one of the ones you can use homebrew with ? If it is you can just get a dirt cheap usb gecko and load it from that.
