Although crystal Xbox are common enough and hardly limited I don't see the point in painting one , I picked up a working crystal beginning of the year for £5 and a black console with controller, leads and 20 games for a tenner two weeks ago. I would pick up a faulty black unit to paint and sell the crystal case to help cover costs.. you can do lots to a black case see pic.

They are quite common in the UK too. I have several and my orginal still in its box :)

That said the retro tax has begun to creep in and is pushing prices up.

Carboot and garage sales seem to be the best bet as people usually have no clue on values.

spraying clear boxes from the inside with clear spray is a winner though.
