Paid a Huge Markup on an Oculus Quest

Before I went completely off retail margins I did some retail arbitrage and dropshipping. Today I was on the opposite side of this as someone has clearly been sniping the Oculus Quest and selling them on Amazon for a 30% markup.

I guess the pandemic has been a pretty good driver for VR.

Still bought one. I regret nothing.

I still haven't used mine much because for me every game is a vomit simulator.

How is the graphic quality? I have the PSVR and its not really high res.

Played with one over the weekend and it was alright. Felt a bit motion sick on a kayak game when I went too quickly from a standing start but got a good couple of hours in without issue overall. Someone said if you do experience it just keep your sessions short while you get used to it.

I have nothing to compare it to as it's my first VR experience but from what I gather it's higher res than the PSVR. Don't quote me on that though. The selling point for me was not having cables or needing another device, it's small enough I can travel with if I make some room for it.

It was now a responsible adult decision to improve my work productivity. That's my story and my accountant won't believe a word of it.
