The lampshades on those poor phones look as good as one on a partying drunk.

Herr cusbas and a handful of more phone destroyers found this "innovative" way to maximize their profits on a difficult market. "Cutaway models" are also their specialty (cut off chipped corners and call it a rare educational model).

Why throw paint over one phone when you can throw it over four.
Then turn them into lamps.
