Ok, Hopefully this time ebay (NO RESERVE) wont cancel my auction again. I didn't mention the modchip this time. Its got a Xecuter 2.1 lite pre-installed, evox set up on the hard drive. Like is says in the Ebay description, only been out of the box for chroming and modchip install. Here is the link. Any questions, e-mail me. snorkleboy@modstation.com
This xbox is beautiful, pictures dont do it justice.

By chrome you mean the metal right? How heavy is that thing now?

The layer of metal is so thin that it doesn't siginificantly add weight.

not worth the price to chrome it, he said 80 for box, 100 for box and controller. why would u want to pay that much just to change the look of the box. fuck that, its nice if ur rich and wipe ur ass w/ $20 bills i guess....

Actually, I said it would be $100 for the box and 2 controllers.
I will do the same for $80 if you send me two sets at a time.
Considering the time and money spent to paint an xbox, $100 is pretty reasonable if you were to compare the results of both.
Oh, I dont wipe my ass with 100 dollar bills, I prefer leaves or newspaper.

Its actually chrome. Done using a special process for plastic. Aluminum rather than nickle.

What is done to protect the chrome? Aren’t you worried about ware on the controller on the chrome rubbing off?

A clear coat is applied after the chrome to protect it. The same process it used on plastic pieces that go on the outside of cars. Those last years and go through a lot more abuse than a xbox controller.

im not trying to make fun of this xbox but man that looks a awfull lot like spray paint to me or they are very bad pics. chrome on plastic is alot more reflective than that.

they are very bad pics.
It reflects like a mirror. One of the reasons the pics are so bad is that if I used the flash, you couldn't make anything out.

Shipping is extra. As long as your in the U.S., it shouldn't be more than $10.
