I'm currently trying to become self-employed and have long been attached to the idea of offering a service in which the casings of consoles (Playstation, Xbox and Co.) or the controllers are "foiled" using water transfer printing. Very individual designs can be selected (skulls, hemp leaves and various patterns). Different colors can also be selected. Something like that would cost between 179 and 199 euro for a console with all the trimmings and about 100 euro for controllers. Optionally, the console and controller can be redesigned in the same design for a total of 249 to 269 euro.
I would also like to install consoles in new housings. Your PS4 components are then built into a handmade wooden housing with a glass pane and LED lighting, for example.
Since I'm currently still working on this project and also a dream, I wanted to ask the "pack" how I would get this idea.
(As soon as my website and Instagram profile are public, I will also link them here)
Think that there are people who find something cool. But there will be very few people who buy this at the price. It's just very expensive. I can also put 2 stickers on my console myself.
Yes what? If the console is in the closet / shelf it looks almost the same and it doesn't even cost a tenth of the price…
Yes understandable. I'm also considering concentrating more on the conversions in other housings and offering the wrapping for a little less
Just find your statement very deliberate and sensible. ^^ #Humor
Oh, now suddenly? XD
I don't think anyone on a console that has already cost 200 euro (or more) will spend the same price on a design again
For me personally: sounds interesting, but I don't see the price / performance behind it. Would it be a fraction of it, but at the cost point…
At first I thought the price already included the console or the controller.
I don't think anyone will buy that at the price.
Even then, the target group that buys for the price will probably be small.
Then it would help me a lot if I could find out what you would be willing to pay for something like this
As painful as that may sound when you see your asking price, but for me personally, a console design around 50 euro would be maximum
Edit: and that's not because I can't afford it. It's more like wanting - as I said, the 200 euro would be the price of the console again
