It's probably selling like crap so they slashed the price. I mean look at the thing... it's just ugly and doesn't match the system at all.

to be honest none of the faceplates do unless you hide the top and sides way from your view. i just posted it to let somebody who wanted a new faceplate see the price

I actually have that faceplate, and it looks damn sharp on my 360.

It would've been nice to save a few bucks, but I think I paid $20 for it, and I imagine the shipping would offset the extra money saved.

you can get nearly all them faceplates for about £6 on ebay, all the random ugly as crap ones go dead cheap on there, it's just the rare or game ones that cost alot.

just buy it and airbrush it with your own design. or do what i did and buy a vinyl cover for it. You've instantly got a brand new looking faceplate at half the price of a normal white one

I think the only faceplates that look nice are the same color as the 360 with a design on it so it doesnt stand out as much from the rest of the system.

If you want custom faceplates...

http://news.teamxbox.com/xbox/10728/Nyko-Ships-Customizable-Faceplate-Kit-for-Xbox-360/

There was a website that actually built one, and said it came out quite nice. Of course, it's only as good as your imagination, and unfortunately, currently doesn't support Photoshop files.

EDIT: Here's that in-depth review.
