Re: HELP!
You can commission one, but it's gonna cost you.

The bottom of that page has reasoning for the price:
You're probably better off building one yourself. He wrote up some much better-detailed instructions here, but it deals with the older SIXAXIS (because the DualShock 3 was still about a year away):

Alternately, you could hire the job out to one of the modders on the forums here. Check their previous work to see what kind of quality you can find. (Older/more experienced modders will most likely ask a bit more than the younger/less experienced ones, but you get what you pay for.)

Here's a few pictures of one he made that shows how the guts fit inside:The PS360 Controller Mod is $750 US (includes cost of both controllers). If you really want one I will build it (lead time 2-3 weeks), otherwise, why not just buy an Xbox 360? It’s a lot cheaper and 90% of the games are the same as the PS3.

Basically it costs so much because there are other, higher-paying jobs he can get done at the same time, so he has to charge what he does to cover the cut in pay he'd otherwise take.NOTE: Since this mod, for whatever reason, continues to be popular, I should note than when I do make these on occasion, the current cost is $750 US. (Controllers+about 2 days labor+compensation for the dollar sucking in value)
