Bored with your black console? You can head over to E-Bay and bid on the worlds first and only White PS3 console (http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=260068957059).
It seems PS3center.net (http://www.ps3center.net/) member Michal Birecki was one of those who camped outside a retail store, in the hopes of being one of the first to own a PS3 console with the intention of reselling it on E-bay, for a tidy profit.
When he noticed the units weren't fetching much more than the full retail price on E-Bay of late, he decided to put a unique spin on his product, by spraying it white.
After seeing what happened to the Playstation 3 market on eBay, we quickly realized that we won’t get much for our black PS3. PCN then decided to put a little twist to their unit. We created the world’s first and only white Playstation 3. This is a full replica of Sony’s Prototype.
Sony released 3 colors for the Playstation 3, black, silver and white. At the moment, only the black Playstation 3 is available on the market.
My father owns a car dealership / body shop in Montreal, Canada, so I decided to put my bodyman skills to the test.
With the bid standing at just over $1500 at the time of this post and five days to go, this should be an interesting one to watch!!
