sladle11 Posted August 7, 2020 Share Posted August 7, 2020 Hello, I have purchased HTC VIVE VR on Ebay recently, this is discontinued model so I had to ask here. Looks like I found some suspicious package conditions as used item. Could someone please give me some honest idea? Minor stains and handmade packing, Brushed Parcell, unpacked controllers.

HackPerception Posted August 10, 2020 Share Posted August 10, 2020 @sladle11 - This wouldn't be "new" by definition because it's definitely an open box unit. Two of the most obvious indicators of usage are scratches/microscratches on the lenses as well as visible damage to the HMD tether. It's virtually impossible to use an HMD for any significant amount of time without seeing some wear & tear on those components. I generally don't recommend buying HMD's and VR equipment used. They're fragile. You did get hit with misrepresentation though - most selling platforms would call this "Used - Very good" or "used - good" at best, even if the hardware itself was only lightly used, it's still an open box unit for sure.
