Looking at picking up a quest 3, but want to try one out before I buy. Doesn’t seem like the usual places (JB, EB, department stores) offer any way to test them? Does anyone know of retailers who have demos?

    I bought a Vive a while back to try it, and returned it when it didn’t outperform my Valve Index. I highly recommend not buying a Facebook (Oculus) headset, though. Look into the insanely invasive privacy concerns.

    They are cheaper because you are the product, and thus they profit off selling your private data.
