Microsoft Auctioning off White Xbox One

EChondo

I wouldn't take an Xbox One if I was paid, so I sure as hell am not going to spend 11 thousand dollars on it!

I am tempted to bid just to get on this action....

 

I'm sure later on modders will build white Xbox One shells.

Nothing in there even suggests that Microsoft is auctioning anything, it's the dude that managed to get one that is holding the auction.

Larry Hyrb, AKA Major Nelson(you know, the Director of Programming for the Microsoft gaming network Xbox Live) is auctioning it off.

 

Sure, Microsoft isn't directly auctioning it off, but one of their employees is.

I see it just like the Wii. It's a nice toy for a little while, but it will get old within a month and it'll just sit there collecting dust. Sure you'll still use it for voice commands and hand gestures, but even then you're not using it to its full potential.

That means Microsoft has nothing to do with it. The white xboxes were given to the employees and he's auctioning his.

Its only about 12k... Imagine the type of rig you can build with 12k.

 

I imagine you could get a white casing made up for a lot less than $12k too :lol:

Its currently at $11,300.00 which is pretty expensive but it is great that this is for charity. Wonder if anyone is going to mod their black xbox one to a white one by painting the exterior. :)

Lol, that was me when I was 12, let's just say paint on the internals doesn't bode well for performance
