Not that I'm aware of, but it's early days yet. Lets see how many get pulled out.

Stories say there were MILLIONS of copies.

Don't give a shit about rarity, I WANT ONE.

Wintergreen's music video for 'When I Wake Up' tells the story of the band digging up the cartridges. Alas, they didn't really travel to the site, and the mystery remains, er, mysterious.

Anyway, Microsoft needed to find this spot so they can have a place to bury the Zune, Xbone, Windows 8, Windows Vista, and windows ME.

Aren't there newspaper articles about the dump as well as photos of the dumping actually happening? I always thought this was just a thing that happened and not an urban legend...
