The one from Costco will be $200 I believe so no this is not as good of a deal.

I try to post this helpful info when I see sales. (Refurbs may not get the free game or activation credit).

If you don't like the "free" games of the month you can hold off activating Meta+ for 3 months.

Games claimed for "free" through the subscription are only accessible with an active subscription.

$30 credit for those that use a friend link prior to device setup (it's a ban-able offense on SD to post/request such links but check Reddit)

ALL SALES ARE TARGETED meaning they could offer 50% off to one account and no sale for another.

When buying games check for developer links to save a flat 15-20% when there is no active sale on the game.

You're going to want a better strap and there's 2 or 3 great options for under $100. Some have hot swap batteries.(examples kiwi, globular, boboVR)

If you have glasses or a stigmatism there are snap on prescription lenses for $20 on sites or $50 direct from Meta.

The max credit you can attain per year is $599 (anything $600+ is taxable)

The 4th gen headset is expected 2026/2027

There's free 3rd party software like OcularMigraine that improves visuals at the cost of battery life. Others like Quest Games Optimizer have a price associated along with permissions.

The games with PCVR need the Meta app for PC and many others recommend Virtual Desktop when on sale.

You do not need to link FB/IG to your account can use a normal email account.

If you mess up the $30 link you have 7 days to click a $30 link and factory reset your headset and go through initial setup to get it. Otherwise you need a good bit of personal info from the other person for support to process it. Sometimes there's a promo for $60 credit so check the app.

I'm sure there is info I forgot like there's no crossbuy and if you see it that means it gives you a Meta PC copy you need the app to play.

360 videos through the YouTube app are not true 4K and should be downloaded to view uncompressed.

Rechargeable batteries for the controllers are a must as they take 1 AA each.

Activate 2 factor authentication and set a pin for purchases to minimize accidents. There is a small return window for purchases but YMMV with support.

Those with GeForceNow can use it with the headset but the experience is not amazing yet.

Do NOT expose headset or lenses to direct or reflected sunlight (use a cover)

If you owned a Quest2 and purchase a Quest3 you may still be able to get the $30 activation credit.

Do NOT leave the headset charging for hours unsupervised or with 3rd party plugs/cables

Always read reviews as Most Recent and check online for in depth reviews.

I've accidentally punched my headset during a vr workout and thankfully it was fine but mind your surroundings.

Meta+ is not needed to use the headset (my 3 month trial ran out)

Only use a dry microfiber cloth to clean your lenses or risk removing the anti glare coating

Batman game extended through December 2026

I own a Quest 3

This is YMMV In Store Only deal (probably very few units nationally on sale at that price and local to that one store), none of the 6 costcos in my metro area have that pricing, and is not their Black Friday sale.

With the new steam frame Vr headset, all headsets are expected to go down. I would wait for the real Quest3 and not the Quest3S.

Steam VR won't be out for Xmas though. Would assume Black Friday / cyber Monday will be our best deals... Amazon will try to tie/match/create their own deals at the drop of a hat. Best Buy came out with a deal this week, then Amazon followed real quick.

This is the right answer. The pancake lenses of the 3 are FAR superior to those of the S model. The S is cost reduced and has a much worse display.

I'm not seeing any info about the $50 Amazon gift card. How can we be sure we're going to get the gift card bonus in 30 days?

I'm worried about this too. I feel like that part of the offer may have expired.

Possibly, but it also could be a way to generate sales through affiliate links because each site that mentions the $50 Amazon credit has it's own link to the product. I'll hold off to see if retailers sweeten the pot even more in the coming weeks.
