So. Remember that guy whose signed X-Box was wiped clean when he sent it in?

3 possibilities:

*Disgruntled employee, about to be fired, and wanting to leave some headaches to his supervisors.

*Bungie/Halo hater

*A "smart" but dishonest person, who grabbed a new case, used some markers on it, faked a cleanup, and replaced the case with art vs the "pretend" case. Soon to be featured on Ebay, or for personal use if the guy/gal is a Halo fan...

I dunno, I can see it happening anyway.
'Policy is we clean the cases so they look new'. And a chemical wash/whatever to do so. Admittantly, that could fall under disgruntled, in my opinion though it'd fall under 'just don't care', which I guess is a type of disgruntled.

Doubt it'll make it to ebay directly from him though, far too easy to recogonize, and I'm sure 'signed 360' is a common search now for a few folks out at consumerist/et alli.
