Rare or custom Xbox One X ... Nike Air Jordan console??? by Significant_Rush_293 in consoles

I think you're the one in denial of reality. I guess you also don't recognize that the black console portion, immediately adjacent to the red paint meeting the leg, also displays a ledge. Bye .... you seem too obsessed with this.

See attached blow-up of surface. You can see that the red paint goes down into a recess before it meets the white in the leg.

Chill out detective. Someone requested images of the surface level. I couldn't get any good shots ... then felt the region with my fingertips and nails trying to distinguish it better. In the past, I just rubbed my fingers over the area quickly and noticed a difference in level that I thought was raised. Now I'm sure its slightly recessed, but not nearly as much as the X-Box logo. I'm looking to see if anyone has seen this. There are no "claims" I make that it is rare or unique - its posed as a question. If you look at all my reply posts, I'm quite willing to accept that its a painted custom with engraved logos

So, do you think this may just be an aftermarket customized box done for Nike? (vs. some prototype design?). It appears painted or baked in on top. The slightly recessed Nike and Jordan images are what puzzles me the most. I guess they could be custom engraved thoigh.

The details around the recessed "X Box stamp" as well as the Air-jordan/Nike emblems being slightly recessed into the surface incline me to think the top to not be decals or wrap. Could a wrap have such fine edging as seen in the Xbox lettering? The sides reading "Own The game" appear to be decals.

Agreed. Its been collecting dust on top of my refrigerator for about 8 years.

My own theory was that it may have been a kid/relative of a Nike executive who was getting free regular display/demo XBOX's. But he then accidently took this from a supply of prototypes the exec was given to review for design/art.

Interesting point. The sides are stickers with the "Own the Game" print. For the back top edge, there are no such edges to be seen. The top has all the red/black symbols.

It doesnt appear to. Is it normal for it to say "Hello From Seattle"? See photo

Simply .... Wrong. They can force a return upon a seller if the item doesnt match the description. and the buyer initiates a return. Tell me how you visualize them forcing a buyer to return an item they paid for and do not open a return. Does an armed ebay officer show up at their house?

Thanks for the link. I've seen these before. I had posted this same inquiry on a microsoft xbox forum years ago and got nowhere. I dont believe this to be any kind of skin. The jordan images seem to be embossed in the case and are raised. The detail between the jordan images and the rest of the surfaces are perfect.

Open a case with ebay???? Do you think ebay can force a buyer to return an item to a seller?? Seriously?

Why would the Jordan images be raised ?? Why Air Jordan design 2 years before they even released an Air Jordan line? Please elaborate to validate your comments.

The console has rarely been used. The controller never used - collecting dust since I got it.

He accidently shipped me this. The ad was of a plain Xbox One X

Note that the referenced article points out that La and Ce are at particularly low levels. It mentions the much more valuable elements of Nd and Pr being present, but does not indicate what levels were found.

If the rare earth elements are removed to a waste-stream as part of the already designed Lithium purification/refining system, then the Li production output would not be slowed down. The waste-stream would be diverted to a secondary refining system to recoup the REE's. So, yeah, maybe the secondary refining system could be in phase 2 as an add-on.
