This works really good, I was surprised. I doubt this VR is is worth it at all, its pretty lame so far.

Australia always seems to get raped with any sort of electronics prices or even video games.

That's loving outrageous tbh.

I thought it'd be like $400 and even at that price it's too expensive. I mean it's really cool and all but what can you do with it other than flight/space sims and porn? There's not enough software that couples with it to justify $630 and most of the games that do work with it just give you additional stuff to look at; there's no additional VR functionality or anything it's just like cool now I can look around my Kerbal cockpit by turning my head instead of the mouse.

It's neat but I'm not shelling that much out to watch porn.

I'd be interested to know how much they cost to produce and how much they need to recoup before they are profitable.

I feel like if they priced it lower they'd sell way more units but if it costs them like $550 per unit then their margin is already super low I guess once you get through CC processing fees and shipping and taxes and poo poo.

how about all these guys paying $600 for a pair of vr goggles when next year's model will be better and cheaper.

$350 is the max I would pay for it. I'm really interested in VR, but at this price point and the hardware you need to run it, it just isn't worth it.
