Custom coloured PS3s hit eBay

Posted on October 31st, 2007 at 05:28 EDT

Bored of your black or white PlayStation 3? Fear not, as custom coloured PS3 consoles have now appeared on eBay.

A company called XSS Corporation is behind it, selling Ferrari red, green, pink and baby blue versions on the Canadien eBay site.

Starting at USD 1,000 apiece, they come bundled with two colour coded controllers which look nicely done, one charger cable and a power cable.

The PS3s also include a 80GB hard drive, with postage priced at USD34.99 for US customers, although the company say they are willing to ship abroad. They have 100% feedback on the site too, so appear to be trustworthy.

Unfortunately, we must advise that Sony's warranty is unlikely to be applicable to the consoles after these paint jobs.

Not really customed colored if they only have the above mentioned colors available! Will they provide varied effects other than shiny? Maybe a pearlescent effect may look cool! I mean for that price, it's not a cheap option when they only have a limit amount of colors! And no decal designs either! Meh!

Give me $200 and I'll give your PS3 an original abstract paint job. For $300 I'll do something real art-y like spray it with glue and then cover it with leaves - PSTree
