GREETINGS FROM THE UK EVERYONE!!!!

The guy says its his 1st time selling. He will only do a money order, and his guarantee is that he provides an "email paypal address" against fraud. I wouldn't give this guy $7 let alone $700. wayyyyyyyyy to risky. Nice item, but I got burned before on $1,800 worth of merchandise so needless to say "buyer beware". International money orders are VERRRYYYYY risky b/c you have no way of recouping the money. He can give a speech about paypal but they can't do anything against money order. (remembers an old rock song: "sometimes I feel I have to.... duh duh... run away...." lol seriously though not in a million years.

Yes it is. I'm selling it. Space has done more for me in these past weeks of hell that I've had to go through personally and that is why I want to give some of that money to him and his family. He deserves so much for not just the way he treats other people, but how honest and open he is, is a quality that I find to be very lacking. Case in point, there are some users on here who actually didn't give a ****, and who couldn't care less. Well Space stepped in like a good friend and helped me through a lot. I never thought that someone could come to someone's aid like that, and I respect the hell out of Space. I even threw him extra $$$ to help him w/ shipping costs and what not for other projects of his, just something, anything I can do to try and repay the kindness he has shown me. I respect the hell out of him, and consider him to be a good friend. Space has done a lot, not just for me, but for all of us here. I know he's modest about taking credit but this is for him. I want to do whatever I can to make sure that his family is well taken care of, henceforth, Space *I know you'll prob. read this when you wake up* I'm going to be making some phone calls for you in the world of finance to get you a wonderfull career so that you and your family can prosper and grow. I am also going to send you some money next week, just as a way of saying thank you for everything, if you or your family ever need anything I will be there. I owe Space a tremendous debt of gratitude, and I think it would be nice if all of us showed Space the results of all his positive influence. Take a bow sir, you have a friend for life.

Symmetric,
Very nicely put and heart felt sentiments. I agree that Space gives much more than he gets back in this community. People can't appreciate the effort space put into setting up these forums and contests, never mind identifying and cataloging over a thousand faceplates.
I'm going to do my part by starting the bidding on this plate. I hope to see other members step up and outbid me.

[SpaceGhost2K]

Wow, thanks you guys. I just don't want BioWare mad at me because their plate is up for sale so I hope there isn't an issue there. Eventually, I think most of this stuff is going to change hands and I think they probably know that.

Microsoft has their MVP award, and I was recognized for the award in 2006 and 2007. Earlier this year, becuase of a complain from a forum member (elsewhere), MS gave me a "warning," only that what I'd posted might affect my renewal. It's true, I was a little harsher than I am in real life, but not out of line considering the context at the time. Anyway, I took it personally. I'd always said that MS didn't tell me what I could say and what I couldn't, and in this case, they did, so I withdrew from the program. I was told though, that I would be eligible just like enyone else once that year was up. That was October 1. I know of two people who were dropped, but they'd both been MVP's for like six years each. Three very close friends, including Kam here at XBA, were renewed but I wasn't.

I was prepared for it and wasn't devestated or anything, but this week it's starting to sink in a bit how left out I felt by not being renewed. I worked my ass off last year trying to build up a part of the community that has basically been treated like they don't even exist. I started the forums, I started the database, I wrote articles for OXM and Xbox Canada, I was interviewed by everyone from community websites to the Japanese press (who liked me enough to hold me back and ask additional questions). I've gone to every event I can get into so I could tell the community about it.

As far as Microsoft's concerned, I don't feel very "valuable" at all. So I thank you guys tremendously for thinking of me, and helping me out when you can. There are some ridiculously generous people in here.

Sorry about the non-renewal. MS's loss, not yours. Just remember, if it wasn't for you, most of us wouldn't be here, at this site, or involved in faceplates at all. You are the reason I started collecting in the first place. At first, all I wanted was the "Syler Escape" plate, but after you made me one, I was hooked. I have friends that give me hell for my habit, I tell em, "Blame Spaceghost, he's the one that started it." You got me doing customs now. c'mon

You have done so much for us, whether it be a hard to find plate, link to site, a sticker, or even a simple comment/suggestion.
If I had some extra money, I would be all over the Bioware, and Mirrors Edge plates.

I, along with others in this forum applaud you and your dedication to the faceplate and Xbox. If MS can't see what a great influence you are, p**s on them. We love you buddy.:cheers:

If Bioware has a problem w/ me selling the faceplate and giving you some money to help your family out, then by all means let them contact me. I can see their side of the coin and it makes sense, however, there are more important things like taking care of a family.

I'm sorry to hear about your loss of MVP status. I know that you pour every ounce of yourself into not only this community, but the entire xbox community as well. You do whatever you can to make sure that your members here are well taken care of. I can understand that the MVP thing is only for a year and is MS way of rewarding people that do amazing things for the xbox community, however, for MS to simply "not renew" your status just b/c of one indiscretion (which was never clarified by MS's part) is wrong.

Space all of us here consider you to be MVP, don't forget that. When I first came to this site it was b/c of the dedicated faceplate section of the forums. I was wanting to start a collection, however, just starting out, I had no idea what faceplate was worth what, and how rare, etc. I applaude your efforts as well as the other members who worked so dilligently on creating a faceplate database that was mammoth in size as well as keeping things up to date as best as possible.

I don't think that MS realizes what an asset you are to the xbox community and it wouldn't be surprising to me if next year MS votes you back into the MVP program. You dam near break yourself to spend YOUR money to make faceplates for others, and sometimes, you don't even get paid for it. That sir is generosity at its purest form. I remember when you were selling other faceplates that you created just to make enough money to send out faceplates for the Civ. Rev. contest winners.

I have made a couple phone calls today for you and if you want to shoot me a msg. on xbl I'll be more than happy to talk w/ you about this, b/c I also need some info on you lol.

I hope people realize how much effort and strain you put yourself through for the other members here, you deserve to be rewarded for your efforts. Space you still are MVP.

I bid on ten of them, but it didn't apply the free shipping. $30 is all I've got, so I need to scare up some $$$ somewhere, or I need to talk him into hanging onto them for me for a few days. I only got paid for a half a paycheck from Michael's and haven't gotten anything from OXM yet for the article. I told him I wanted all of them. $2.99 each for 23 plates would save my nutz.

hey does anyone on here know wasabisabi from ebay? I have 3 different mailing addresses from her, NONE of them verified w/ Paypal. The contact phone number provided by Ebay is inconclusive (just goes straight to a voice mailbox). wasabisabi won one of my auctions, however due to the cost of the auction and what was involved I am refusing to send out the items (she hasn't paid so no worries there) b/c since the addresses are NOT verified, then I am unprotected. Her Ebay location is the UK and the phone number provided is USA. Her mailing address on the shipping label is USA, however, she has a Hong Kong mailing address as well. Both the USA & Hong Kong address are not verified w/ Paypal, neither is the UK address (which she puts down as just London, and thats it). This sounds WAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY to shady esp. since wasabisabi has another Ebay account "happycstar" who also put offers on my auction. Does anyone here know wasabisabi? I'm not trying to be rude, but when I ship out 30 faceplates, I want to know that I've got some form of protection against fraud. I don't want to ship to the USA mailing address and then have her turn around and file an "unreceived item" form and then have Paypal send her BACK the money, and me be out 30 faceplates!

[SpaceGhost2K]

30 faceplates? No way unless it was verified. I would ask her to give you a verified, US address, and that's it. I wouldn't ship that many plates to the UK.

[gameking28]

Yeah that doesn't sound right to me either - go with your gut on this one and wait for a confirmed address.
Depending on the amount involved here you may consider using an eBay escrow service so you don't have to worry about getting screwed after sending out the plates.

[Symmetric-XBA]

Thanks for the advice, I've sent out 2 msg's yesterday in which I told her that I would send it out, but only if she could provide me with a verified paypal address that I would call and verify myself w/ paypal. I also said that I would be filing an unpaid item notice just to recoup my fees from ebay and that I would not give her an unpaid item strike. Bottom line, I told her that if she wanted them then submit payment w/ the whole address thing taken care of and then they would be hers. Much to my surprise (sarcasam) I have not heard anything back. I think I just avoided a bullet there.

Zero feedback for the seller - PayPal will only cover up to $200 on unestablished sellers. It could be legit, but I wouldn't bet the farm on it.
If anyone here plans on bidding on it, I'd point out that he's using another auction's photo (which isn't allowed) and request that the seller provide a picture of the console with his eBay user name in it.
Go through an escrow service if you end up winning since it's already over $200. There's just too much of a chance of getting screwed.

OK here's the latest on the Mass Effect signed faceplate. Ebay ID: XBOXGAMER76 or whatever he is called should be brought to the forum's attention about decit. We had arranged a sale for the faceplate, we agreed on terms and conditions. I don't hear from him for about 3 days after this arrangement was made. I spend literally almost the entire day today trying to get a hold of the guy and he completely ignores me. Now @ 5:30 in the morning I FINALLY get in touch with him after sending him IM's ALL day long (since he was online and at his computer). He now informs me that he can NOT do the deal. I ask him "why then did you make me wait all day long and ignore me to finally tell me this now". His response was that he was playing COD4, but he KNEW BEFORE he started playing that he could NOT do it. I asked him again "why then did you not tell me when you found out and make me wait all day long for this to happen". This is an excerpt from my conversation with this piece of ****.

HotRodF15076 (5:09:30 AM): no just around at night before i played with cod 4
SymmetricMusic (5:14:18 AM): if you knew before you played, and you knew i was trying to get in touch with you, why did you not send me a msg.
HotRodF15076 (5:14:21 AM): it was the team order
SymmetricMusic (5:14:33 AM): huh?
HotRodF15076 (5:14:49 AM): if i didnt get to them they will boot me off so i didnt want to do that

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I'm informing EVERYONE now, DO NOT SELL TO XBOXGAMER76 or whatever his name is. We know here what this was going for, and I'm VERY PISSED OFF FOR 2 reasons.
1) This hurts the main reason I was selling it, we all know what that is.
2) This D-bag LIED! He doesn't give a straight answer and will do anything to back out of it.
Now I'm glad I didn't sell that fp to that lying sack of ****. I'm letting everyone on here know right now DO NOT SELL TO XBOXGAMER76. If you would like to see the rest of my conv. with this lying d-bag, then let me know b/c I have the entire conv. saved.

OK here's the latest on the Mass Effect signed faceplate. Ebay ID: XBOXGAMER76 or whatever he is called should be brought to the forum's attention about decit. We had arranged a sale for the faceplate, we agreed on terms and conditions. I don't hear from him for about 3 days after this arrangement was made. I spend literally almost the entire day today trying to get a hold of the guy and he completely ignores me. Now @ 5:30 in the morning I FINALLY get in touch with him after sending him IM's ALL day long (since he was online and at his computer). He now informs me that he can NOT do the deal. I ask him "why then did you make me wait all day long and ignore me to finally tell me this now". His response was that he was playing COD4, but he KNEW BEFORE he started playing that he could NOT do it. I asked him again "why then did you not tell me when you found out and make me wait all day long for this to happen". This is an excerpt from my conversation with this piece of ****.

I wish i could, the best option I have was to at least inform the people on here as to the type of person he is and the character he shows. don't even get me started on wasabisabi. 8 days and no payment when the auction stated "please make payment at auction close". i've sent 4 msg's as well, and no response.

- Where did the Far Cry plate come from? Cool!

- What's up with the ME plate? Didn't it just sell?

[Symmetric-XBA]

space the me plate was going to sell. i posted on pg. 40 the deal with this plate. originallly the person who won the auction got a "second chance offer" but the buyer didn't respond in 24 hours (the time you have for a secon chance offer). Then xboxgamer76 wanted the plate, we worked out everything then he lied and it didn't go through. If you would like to read details on what happened I posted some of my conv. with this liar on pg. 40.

I'm just relaying information in my personal dealings w/ xboxgamer76, anyone who would ignore someone for an entire day and then lie to them is not someone I would trust w/ any transaction.

Its now been 10 days since, ebay id: wasabisabi won my auction. The last I heard from her was the 15th of October (5 days ago). She provided ebay a false phone number to contact. She has ignored multiple emails and msg's. I orginally had no intention on filing an unpaid item strike against the user so long as she kept in contact and kept me informed. This was completely ignored on her end so to all users BEWARE OF EBAY ID: wasabisabi, and happycstar b/c they are the same exact person. Now I am giving it 3 more days and if no response or payment is recieved from then I'm contacting ebay in regards to the false contact information phone number provided on both accounts and filing an unpaid item strike. I hate being taken advantage of and this is the thanks I get from her. what a *****

you have no idea man, i get buyers who do not pay, no communication w/ buyers, and an ebay support that is a ****ing joke. I swear this is really starting to put me off of faceplates. I try to provide items for ppl that I think they would want and all I get is hassle.

Has anyone heard of any pre-order faceplates coming soon in the US?

[SpaceGhost2K]

I haven't seen anything about any current pre-order offers for faceplates. The last few faceplates making the rounds were tournament prizes or media gifts.

The TeamXbox faceplate has gone for more then $200 and less than $75. What you'd get for it would be as much a matter of timing as anything.

That's probably the reasoning behind it. If they throw more goodies at the Japanese they're hoping they'll grab more of the Sony and Nintendo dominated market-share out there. They don't have to work as hard for it out here in North America.

I agree. I hate when I sell to a user with Zero feedback. If you are really interested I would private message the seller stating if it falls through you would be willing to purchase it. It would certainly be worth your time.

i just had a morbid thought of what if that system got the rrod?? it may actually look good considering the system lol

It's possible the guy has an extra account and was bidding it up as high as the highest bidder would go, and will then relist it at the highest price.

Hey, Game Crazy has dropped some prices on their consoles:

Xbox 360 Elite w/ 120 GB HDD used, $259. (That's a ridiculous price.)
Xbox 360 Pro w/ 20 GB HDD, used, $219.
Xbox 360 Core, used, $159.

Wii's are $199 used. PS2's dropped too but I don't remember their prices. I think it's $69 for a used PS2 Slim. The Elite is the stupid deal though. $140 less than new?

[Floppy Brown]

That's quite a bargain ! Congratulations.

As for the E3 faceplates, the real official ones usually come with some kind of plastic tube around them.

That seemed like a good deal to me. So I bought it. Please tell me that is not a fake plate.

[mrpunchy]

I sent him/her a message asking for that to be included. I hope that they have it. I have been looking at some real e3 plates and it seems legit.

In reality I sent the seller a message yesterday asking if they had it and that I would be interested in purchase if they did. I thought about when I woke up and figured that one of you would just jump on it anyway at that price so I just acted. I will look for a case for it if they do not have it.

[JakofallAces]

That's quite a bargain ! Congratulations.

it could be either though the zero hour is 100% real i have never seen fakes, to tell if the E3 is fake check to see the back of the power button when it arrives if its black then its real otherwise sorry its fake

[hellonearth159]

Somewhere in here we had a post that showed the real vs fake plates side by side. Do a search. You can tell the difference in the way the circles overlap the memory card slot also.

THIS OFFER IS GOOD IN THE UK ONLY:

Understated, yes, but I think it's gorgeous, myself.

So that's what it looks like!!! Much Better!! In the earlier ebay pic it looks like a plain blue plate with words printed on it.

For the Endwar and Far Cry 2 faceplates, they are available directly on the Ubi Store, i wouldn't bother buying them on ebay
http://shop.ubi.com/Prod_ExtDesc.asp?catalogid=777&id=117
(14.99€ which is a bit less than 20$ i think)

[SpaceGhost2K]

Is there anyone Canadian or French in here who can read that?

They offer plates for End War, Far Cry 2 and Brothers In Arms. Will they ship to the US?

Also, I wonder if the Prince of Persia plates will be available on there.

[Floppy Brown]

When i go to the ubi store, i'm automatically redirected to the local (french) version of the store.
In the left margin, there is an "accessory" category, that's where i found it.
It seems that they ship worldwide but it is quite expensive (30 to 35$).

If it doesn't work in the US, i could help on this one.
I could have the faceplates sent to my house then reship them to an adress in the US.

I bought one of these plates from him. I'll let you know when I get it. I've gotten stuff from him before that got here okay.

In other news, Guitar Hero guitar faceplates are on clearance at Target for $7.49 each, if anyone wants to try their hand at customizing one. I'm talkin' to you, Air Effex, lol.

Also, Target has put on clearance the Microsoft Wireless Racing Wheel. These things started out at $149, dropped to $129 and then to $99, and now they're on clearance for $49. That's a ridiculous price for those things, and they had a crapload of them.

If you're in the UK and have access to the Blockbuster preorder deal with the Prince of Persia plates, you might be able to talk them out of a few and make some people here in the US VERY happy.

[Floppy Brown]

I live in France.

As for the PoP faceplates, i think they'll be quite a bunch of them available soon around the release of the game. I'll get one for myself when i can and i usually buy a couple of them. I can keep some for you guys if you don't mind waiting a bit. I'll keep you posted if i've found some earlier.

There's a little British flag on the bottom left of the screen that takes you to their English-language site. Placed an order no problem. For EndWar, Farcry, and BIA:HH it comes out to about $60US with shipping.

It cost $24.99 with free shipping. That's a little more than the UbiSoft site, but I got it in three freakin' days.

why does he lie and say its the only one in the world?:confused: i dont get some of the things he does.

[Symmetric-XBA]

why does he lie and say its the only one in the world?:confused: i dont get some of the things he does.

First off I didn't lie. I have sent you a pm. Bottom line is that in the last 3 days something has happened that has caused me a great deal of hassle and trouble, so instead of whining about it on xba I have rolled up my sleeves and done what I can to alieviate the situation. This is important to me b/c not only do I have my own situation to be concerned with, I also have other situations with other members that I am doing what I can to fullfill my end of the bargin (you know who you are). I am not saying that these obligations will not be met, however, I wish for these to be taken care of and not provide me with one penny in my pocket left over. It is pointless to spend all of your money before you have more coming in. I remember on here a while back when I think it was space himself who said something like "if you are using money that you would use to pay the electric bill to buy faceplates, then it could be a problem". I haven't been on as much lately due to the fact that I have a checklist as long as.... well its long, and some of it which is my highest priority now is some members here on xba, as well as my car, and the list continues on and on. If someone has a problem with me I invite them to contact me personally so we can squash the b.s. and move on instead of blatently calling me a liar. If you didn't know, then no worries, no prob. and thats the end of that.

----- end of line -----

[hellonearth159]

Yep, I made that one.
I understand why Symmetric advertised his ebay auction the way he did, but spacey, can you put the issue to bed? How many of these signed plates are there.

[ez054098]

ohhhh i'm more interested in the soundtrack lol i wonder if it can be purchased seperately? hmmm....

I will skip this faceplate. That guy is way too creepy looking.

[SpaceGhost2K]

I made six orange plates with a black Isaac. I made one black plate with an orange Isaac. I made one black plate with a metallic black Isaac.

The black plate went to a member of the development team. It was not signed.

The black and orange plate went to someone here. It was not signed.

The six orange and black plates went to EA to be signed. Ian Milhelm kept one of them and five of them were returned to me, signed.

- I still have one of them.
- BS Angel gave one away at www.hawtymcbloggy.com
- Symmetric got one.
- The other two went to other members here.

One one hand, the write up is wrong, because there are five. On the other hand, since they're hand made and autographed in hand by a number of people, no two plates are EXACTLY alike, so the write up is correct.

Symmetric was in the process of buying some plates from me for the end of this month, but his car was pretty messed up in an accident. He didn't want to leave me hanging, but also had to get the car fixed, so this was his solution.

According to the seller, this is an MS employee only plate of 2008 game releases!!!
Unfortunately, the plates look defective. I asked him to show a picture without the bubble wrap and he refused. I bought one anyway. Below is what it looks like.
The four color printing process was misaligned so the different color layers all have offsets. For all I know, the guy got his hands on a batch of rejects from the run of plates and is trying to sell them.
Just want to make sure people know what they're buying before they get disappointed.

If anyone knows how to get their hands on a good set of these plates, please PM me!!

[gameking28]

Thanks for the heads up! I saw the one you won and the one he's offering now. It seems like when these plates start hitting ebay for the first time and no one has heard about them there's always a catch.

[SpaceGhost2K]

I already sent a message to Microsoft asking if they have any more of these. If they did a run and they were bad, they may have decided not to do another corrected run. Bad ones might be all there is. I thought for a second that maybe that offset thing was an artistic decision. Reason being, if it was an accidental offset for those black lines, then they would all be offset by the same amount. It looks like the image in the center of the plate is offset by a lot more than the images to the sides, like the effect was to make it look like it was standing out from the plate. But then looking at Banjo's lines on his face, I can't see an artist doing that intentionally.

[hellonearth159]

Spacey,
You've got me thinking! I wonder if they offset has a 3D effect? I know i've got a set of glasses somewhere in my house. I'll let you know what I find out.

Neither one is a skin - I've seen the Gears console before.

Colorware (http://www.colorwarepc.com) is the company that did the Indy console.

Look at the vent holes near the top and bottom of the consoles - skins don't cover those. You'll see an outline around them with skins.

I only paid $500 bucks and got the whole launch console, faceplate and green controller included. The plate wasn't in the package, but again, I got the whole console for a third of what he's asking for the plate.

Here's another US Launch team plate (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110327027097) - slightly less insane than the first guy but still dreaming. :rofl:

Also another Simpsons Console (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=130276182113) - This one is really sketchy though. The description and pictures were ripped exactly from THIS (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220318398086) auction... and I mean exactly - the guy couldn't have made it more obvious when you look at both descriptions.
Use an escrow service if you bid on it. :watchout:

How rare? Do you know the story behind it?

Like most EA plates, it's probably limited to 100 or so and given out to either tournament winners or VIP's at pre-release events. Kamshaft has one that he got from the event. I think this is only the 2nd or 3rd I've ever seen on eBay.

Spacey and Everyone,
I need your help with a faceplate I've been trying to get for the last few months:

http://i4.ebayimg.com/06/i/001/1d/79/0ec1_1.JPG (http://cgi.ebay.de/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110332693292)

The seller doesn't use paypal and sent the following answer to my inquiry about US shipping:


"Thank you for your interests on this GoW 2 Faceplate with 2 skinz. I am the only one who offers this faceplate wordlwide. I would send this faceplate into the USA. I don´t accept Paypal but you can tranfer the money onto my bank account in Regensburg (I have BIC and IBAN Nr.) thank you for your questions and much greetings from Bavaria !
Regards, fellknaeuelfozzy"

My question is:
1. How does a guy end up being the only distributor of a GOW2 faceplate worldwide?
2. Has anyone is the US used this bank transfer process to pay for auctions. This seems to be very common with German auctions.
3. Any German collectors willing to buy this for me who accept paypal?
Thanks.

[SpaceGhost2K]

My last efforts to secure plates through proxy didn't turn out so well. Elite Customs has a half-dozen of my plates that I can't seem to get here. I don't think he's trying to do anything funny. We just finally get ahold of each other and before I can get an answer how much I owe him for shipping, he's gone again.

My artist friend from Germany could probably help. He has PayPal. You'd have to PayPal him enough to cover and fees and he could do a bank transfer to the guy. If you can settle on a price with the guy and get the auction closed, I can contact Christoph and give you his PayPal info.

I've seen that faceplate at gamestop. I'll look for it next time and I think he meant he's the only ebay seller who offers to ship the faceplate worldwide or something.

You know I would really be interested in finding out whether these bundles actually boost xbox hardware sales in Japan. It seems like every time a Japanese RPG developer brings out a new game Microsoft is right there with a console bundle.

[OBL infad3ll]

i wonder if that bundle that has RE5 in it will have a faceplate then?

[SpaceGhost2K]

I still don't have the console-exclusive Tales of Vesperia plate. Or the Last Remnant plate. I did manage to get an Infinite Undiscovery plate pretty cheap, though.

[SuperMonkeyHero]

I was just about to post the same Star Ocean bundle news. Looks like the RE5 bundle doesn't have a faceplate packaged in but with the Lost Planet, Dead Rising & DMC4 faceplates coming out of the UK we may not be completely out of luck. (Crossing fingers and everything else that can be crossed!!!)

Spacey did you get my email with the horrible picture and the starting details of my faceplate collection display? After counting I have 43 up and 34 to go.

[SuperMonkeyHero]

Hey Everyone! I received an email today from Capcom about the Street Fighter IV Arcade sticks and controllers coming from Madcatz. Along with all that there was mention of 2 Street Fighter IV Faceplate/Skins bundles. Here's the details:


• Official Street Fighter IV Faceplate and Console Skinz™ – Xbox 360

Featuring custom Street Fighter IV artwork, the highly collectible Faceplate and Console Skinz allow gamers to customize their Xbox 360 console. Safe and totally removable, the Console Skinz wrap around the top and bottom of the console and when combined with the Faceplate, create a stunning Street Fighter IV backdrop. Available in a choice of two striking designs, the Street Fighter IV Faceplate and Console Skinz present an eye-catching addition to any gamer’s living room.

Unfortunately there were no links to pictures in the press release but as soon as I or one of you XBA faithful come across them they'll get posted.

This is what he has on the auction

"Hello, the item you are currently looking at is an exclusive XBOX 360 faceplate, which I won in a competition during the E3 games festival. There were only 10 of these made to celebrate the announcment of the NXE (New XBOX Experience) Live update. However; I really dont want to put it on my XBOX as I have an Elite system, which is black, I think it would look stupid, don't you?

The bottom "flap" to the USB ports has been and is still sucured with selotape, I can only assume this was to aid the printing of the design onto the face plate. Other astetic features that i havent shown in the pictures are, a car, ala Forza 2, and two soldiers fighting it out, ala Call of Duty 4. The faceplate was designed by various artists from different game developers (Turn11 & Finity Ward)

Due to the exclusive nature of this faceplate I will only accept bids from within the UK and only PayPal payment will be accepted.

HAPPY BIDDING & GOOD LUCK!!!"

Do you have an extra one of those that I could buy from you? I can pay 20 Euros if you can ship it with the other plate.

new faceplate on Ebay:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220354736116





From the site : Minimum Order: # 100 to 199 Pieces

Right, but that's just the one company. Sometimes one company will have multiple "names" that they do business under. Other times, multiple companies might have the same inventory. The minimum order quantity are all over the place, even for different plates from the same companies.

I think everyone is on hold because of the Chinese New Year, so I expect to get some replies in the next couple of days. Nothing yet. Unfortunately, I'm not in a position to buy 100 plates and then just sell them to people for what they cost. I'd end up with 80 unsold plates that I'd have to try to unload on eBay to get my money back. It's crossed my mind, but I'm not entirely ready to be an importer, lol.

Now MAYBE.... if they cost me $5 each and I sold them for $10 each (and you guys knew that and were cool with it and remember, it costs another $5 for shipping on top of THAT), then it might maker sense to buy a whole carton of them.

Gillette Champions of Gaming faceplate. First time seen, given away today, apparently.

Sadly, I don't have that kind of money right now.

Some of you might recognize the seller - it's Sean Korb. :)

Only four hours left. It's a ltd ed original xbox console. "Signed" by Bill Gates.

I sent off an email to the Chinese place to ask about getting single plates. One place has multiple designs so I asked what they had available.

I have one of these. I paid about as much. The cool thing is the controllers. They are the same transparent green, but in the original large size. This is the only way you can get them.

Does anyone know of any new per-order faceplates coming up or just released?

I haven't heard about any preorder or free with purchase plates except for the Japanese releases (Star Ocean being the most recent).

I recognized the account name but I've never done business with him.

If he's still doing faceplate stuff, he needs to get his butt in here.

Maybe he was painting the eye and forgot to put it in before he took the pic. I've done that before.

That's pretty cool. Did you win that, or is it currently listed?

it' a an guy who put the photo in a thread.

Hey pierrevincy, did you already check with the post office for the missing parcel with my Faceplates? I'm still waiting for your reply. Thanks!

Anyway, count me in for the Chinese wholesale. It shouldn't cost that much. A friend of my bought 300 printed covers (almost similar to Faceplates) for Nokia phones which he sold in his shop. He paid only $1,65 for each cover. Plastic stuff from China is most of the times quite cheap anyway, but I'm curious what they will charge for Faceplates.

Pierre, I got my green plate today. Thanks :)
