Leaked Xbox 720 Durango dev-kit back on sale through eBay

The alleged leaked Xbox 720 Durango development kit has gone back on sale through eBay, after an earlier sale fell through.

Sunday’s auction for the dev kit hit a whopping $20,100, but with the legitimacy of the items for sale in question, it’s hardly surprising that the buyer got cold feet.

The seller, who refers to himself as SuperDAE revealed on Twitter yesterday that the “Buyer was a non-payer, had some stupid excuse. Will relist asap.”

Even if it is the real deal, a dev-kit is not the same as a next-gen console. Instead, the auction describes a black tower PC, with Intel processor and “dedicated graphics.”

It’s likely that the machine is running a software dev-kit and an Xbox-simulator app. This could give an indication of what the Xbox 720 is capable of, but not necessarily finalised hardware details of Microsoft’s next console.

With six days to go, the current auction price for the system stands at $15,100.
