Manufacturer description
Tested and working. Original cord and PlayStation connector are intact. Condition Notes:Tested and working. Translucent shell has noticeable uneven age/light-related yellowing and discoloration, particularly around the upper shell and shoulder areas; actually it looks intentional, and not bad.
