There’s a new hardmod called ModXO that’s been making the rounds. Part of me wants to make a Shopify store selling handmade ModXO pre-builts, but when looking at the BOM and labor costs, the devices would be around $30 USD.

With BOM, labor, and Shopify costs, I’d need to sell 2 each month to stay afloat and while that seems low, I just don’t know if that’s feasible due to the age of the OG Xbox and niche market who could likely easily put it all tigether themselves.

This sublemmy is pretty small, so I think it’s the perfect place to ask: is there a market for something like this?

    While I’m not familiar with Modzville, I’m sure he also has several other devices he’s already making, and so he doesn’t need to scale that much to take on the small demand.

    Thanks for the insight
