Price drop from 2 days ago. Was $249.
Costco has the worst ecommerce site, so this product page is wrong price, wrong RAM, wrong SKU
You want Item #1773500
Is there a Costco code to items priced with .97 cents?
Discontinued?
Deleted?

Anyone who gets these should immediately turn off automated firmware updates. All the latest Meta Quest firmwares (especially the stuff currently in the PTC) try really hard to push you to use Meta's social features more, including Meta Horizon Worlds... And the new "Immersive Home" stuff that tries to make it look like your home screen and app launcher are part of Worlds is one heck of a waste of CPU and RAM. On my Quest 2 I constantly get "Not enough memory to run this app" errors now.
This would be an absolutely fantastic device if the OS was more open to customization and especially to debloating. As is, it's a Meta marketing tool and ought to be sold as a loss leader, the same way Amazon sells their Kindle and Fire devices dirt cheap intending to make up the loss on Prime memberships.
Depends on how you use it. If you like stand-up Augmented Reality games, then probably. Personally I prefer sitting games (I'm a senior citizen) and frankly the original Quest had more and better games for me. But Meta dropped support and those games (though purchased) disappeared.

Prices ending in .97 is a special markdown at the store only. Not sure why your store is clearing out that item before the holiday rush.
If you post your store's location, locals might be able to replicate the deal if it's still in stock.
For instance in MA in the Boston area, only Everett has it, for $249.

Where is your local Costco that has the 256GB for $199?

I'm in the app, it shows $299 online price, and it says my store name and:
In Stock Buy in Warehouse
Warehouse pricing may vary

If stores are discounting these, I'm guessing it has something to do with this - https://www.cnbc.com/2025/10/29/m...arter.html
That being said, IMHO one of the coolest things about these is that you can use them as a cheap 3D video camera [youtube.com].
