Microsoft has accidentally shipped a number of Xbox One consoles to customers nearly two weeks before its official release date.
After one customer posted pictures of the console on Twitter and put a video on YouTube, Microsoft banned the user from his Xbox One until its launch on November 22.
At least three pre-orders have apparently been delivered early, with one briefly listed on eBay, according to Polygon.com.
In a statement, Microsoft admitted that a handful had been inadvertently shipped early.
“Due to a retail partner’s system issue, a very small number of Xbox One consoles were shipped to consumers before the 11/22 street date”, the company said.
