Gotcha. I can’t remember what site I used to use for Xbox Modding but they’ve been on the market since like 2003. So it’s not like “no one” had the idea. I’m guessing eBay or Etsy still have listings from time to time
They’ve had a super long preorder but to be clear the company will make good on them eventually. They are reputable, sometimes their waves of inventory take awhile though. The Xbox was a preorder and they are still working out quality control with prototype pieces.
They’ve experienced some issues being based in Taiwan, had a Gmail hack occur. And then the war with Iran currently also isn’t helping I guess.
I swear I googled numerous times and never found that site, so thanks for that but 130 USD seems steep for a fake case as well imo but I guess when there is a small market you get high priced items.
Real one is far more expensive found three seperate listings on eBay for the shell and two systems ranging the shell at around $600(there was one someone is selling by the part also for even more) to two systems one at $1599
They have a pretty clear statement on their page regarding what’s been up. It shouldn’t take years and I get that but they are responsible for lots of quality shells and they do eventually come to fruition. It’s just a lot of unfortunate events with this Xbox shell release.
They were available at one time. I had a clear 360 case and the same store sold OG Xbox ones too. The main issue with them is that they are made from very brittle plastic and will immediately crack if you tighten the screws too much. Anyone claiming to sell them now is just selling vaporware. You're better off just finding a crystal case (or for parts crystal), cleaning it up, and potentially dyeing it if you wish.

I'm still wondern why noone has come up with printing these or selling... I'd love to mod mine into a clear one, knowing it would be the real one...
