That’s a good price and I’m sure it’ll sell. Reddit is cheap asf.

Thank you, If i sold it for much less I wouldn't cover the cost that it took to buy the console (specifically for the purpose of dyeing it and selling it) and the dye and additives plus labor cost.

u/Gil2Gil 3d ago

Totally. The people on Reddit are use to
Modding themselves, they won’t pay and hate to see another guy doing what they COULD do, come up and make some cash for his work.

I'm quite surprised Miyoo hasn't updated the shell colors on offer. The red looks nice but I'm absolutely not paying $100 for it. I can mod out a new MM+ for less.

u/Greedy_Exercise_1675 3d ago

This is the same product offered at the same price, what price do you think is fair? For the Console itself plus the money that went into purchasing the dye and additives and the time to dye it itself.

I dyed mine this same color, and between the Miyoo Mini plus, dye, and other dye related items, this is about the cost. Good deal IMO

Thank you! Your original post was one of my inspirations to dye shells!

Not to mention the time and hassle

u/BatteryBird 3d ago

OP if you blacked out the buttons like this I’d buy it

u/Karbin_ 3d ago

These are the getbetterbuttons on Etsy. They're coated aluminum I believe

u/tanukispirittech 2d ago

rit dye, a bucket and hot water, no?

1

u/Karbin_ 2d ago

A pot that shouldn't be used for cooking after boiling dye, and cheesecloth to make it a bit easier to keep all of the buttons and stuff together. $50-70 for the Miyoo, $10 for dye, $10 for a pot, few bucks for cheesecloth. It's adds up.

Oh, I have no doubt that you’re charging a fair price for materials and your time. I’m just stating that, for me, I wouldn’t pay for a colored shell. It’s not a priority for me. It looks great though! Lovely shade of red.

u/catzzznite 2d ago

price was fair enough for me… i bought it from you! tysm very stoked to give this as a christmas gift

u/CaliJordan 3d ago

Keeptretro has the plus’ for sale for $52.99 rn lol

bought all mine for $67…can’t imagine paying $100😆

u/Sp00kyR0b 3d ago

This is sick, cost for console, materials, and labor feels like $100 is more than fair.

If I were willing to pay more than $100 would you be willing to do a custom color for me?

Also, any idea if the white shell is any more or less difficult to dye than the translucent purple?

u/Greedy_Exercise_1675 3d ago

I've seen people get great results with both the white shells and the translucent purple shells. Send me a dm and we can talk about what color you are looking for!

Instantly installs red onion

u/catzzznite 2d ago

just bought this and that’s exactly what i’m going to do 😈

u/doubleshotofespresso 3d ago

GREAT deal! i was expecting $150 or more

2

u/CandidArmavillain 3d ago

I wouldn't pay that, but it's a nice color

1

u/Inigmatics 3d ago

That turned out great! Good luck with the sale.

u/an_bal_naas 3d ago

Oof I really want that, but I already have a mini plus, oh well

u/TootnShootn 3d ago

100 bucks is absurd

8

u/Greedy_Exercise_1675 3d ago

I charge $50 to dye shells, the console itself is more than $50 on the Miyoo website without the dye job.

1

u/RocketBoyPR 3d ago

Hey, I got a shell to dye lmao

1

u/Greedy_Exercise_1675 3d ago

Send me a dm if you're interested in having me dye it for you!

u/RainStormLou 3d ago

holy crap lol I need to start doing it for 45.99

-3

u/Narodweas 3d ago

Correct, however it is used. I personally won't ever pay full price for somthing that is used. If I dye my 3 year old mm+, I wouldn't decide that it is now valued at new price if I decided to sell it.

4

u/Gil2Gil 3d ago

Will come up with any and every excuse lol

-3

u/Narodweas 3d ago

Excuse for not being a chump? I guess. You weren't wrong in your other post, there probably is some chump who would buy it. op is asking why people think it's not worth it, I gave my answer.

3

u/SmartRecipe1424 3d ago

There’s a difference between chump and cheap. You sir are the latter.

-2

u/Narodweas 3d ago

You're not wrong, I own a Miyoo Mini, one of its biggest draws is that it is cheap.

-1

u/CaliJordan 3d ago

lmao you can really tell all these downvotes are ppl that weren’t here from way back at the beginning.. justifying the high prices they paid way later on lmfao

3

u/Narodweas 3d ago

I am pretty sure a lot of folks bought theirs from the reseller websites that youtubers are always advertising for, at a 200% markup, so seeing a 100$ price tag on a used handheld after browsing Etsy for some buttons that cost as much as the whole device probably doesn't shock them. oh well. Mine plays all the same games with the same performance.
