  • VRFriend

    You must spend these 50$ on games, so not a real discount.

    • VR5

      Depends. If you were going to buy games (or other apps), you will save $50. If you weren’t, what are you using the Quest for?

      It’s basically a bundle with 1-2 games of your choice.

      • VRFriend

        There are many free games and apps available. I was counting on 199 EUR price for Black Friday. Or 249 EUR maximum. Regular price is 349 EUR in Europe A coupon for 1 or 2 games is not worth the news article,

        • VR5

          I don’t think you will get those kind of sales. Quest 2 is selling well, there’s no need to lower the price that much. It’s looking like they won’t lower it at all, instead bundling software credit.

          • VRFriend

            Yes I know. The same with Beat Saber. For years never discounted it by 1 cent.

    • Pablo C

      It´s actually lamer: the discount is within the store (i.e. Amazon), and not valid outside US.

  • oomph2

    Why not free if FB a/c & ads are mandatory

    • Pete Van Horn IV

      I haven’t had an oculus before and am considering getting the quest 2. Are there really mandatory ads??

      • NL_VR

        There are no ads in quest.

        just comment by a so called hater.

    • Christian Schildwaechter

      Unity provides an ad network for game developers that can integrate these ads into their mobile apps. You can get about USD 6 – 12 per 1000 ad impressions. The Quest 2 is sold at manufacturing costs, so there is no margin in the USD 300 price for the base model. So to “pay” for a Quest just by watching in-game ads, you’d have to watch 25,000-50,000 ads. Assuming these are 10sec long and unskippable, we are talking about 69.5h to 139h of ads. As hardly anybody would tolerate more that 10% of all their VR usage time to be ads, this means 695h to 1390h of usage with 10% ads to pay for the headset. That is way more usage time than the average Quest will see over it’s whole life span, a lot of people already stop using them after a few months, even though they payed full price and don’t have to endure ads. And in reality nobody would accept 10% ads, 1% would be more realistic.

      So the answer is: because it would never pay.

  • Holdup

    I don’t think 400 is a discount I could swear I paid 299$ for the 256gb

    • craig_sonis

      You got some special promo though. Been watching for a year and the 256GB hasn’t been less then $399

  • Robert Rice

    Actually the Amazon $50 gift card is for Amazon digital downloads only.

    Walmart has a $49 case for free with purchase

    • Stephano1221

      In the UK, you get a £50 gift card for all Amazon.co.uk purchases except for books and digital products.

    • benz145

      It’s sort of confusing. It’s ‘Amazon Digital Credit’ which can be used for digital items and anything ‘Sold By Amazon.com’ which actually includes many physical products.

      • Sven Viking

        Interestingly in Australia it’s AU$100 Amazon credit (~US$72) which is specifically barred from being used on digital purchases.

  • craig_sonis

    Target is still probably the best deal BECAUSE ( think) you also get 5% off if you have a RedCard also. So $299 – $15 = $285 -$50 GC = $235

    Just debating between the 128 and 256 GB models. Hard to justify the extra $100 for 100 extra GB in my head.

  • Andrew Jakobs

    Vive also has some discounts, the wireless module is now 250 euro’s, I might actually think about that.

    • guest

      But now Quest is way below material costs with gift cards. Total evil genius! Why aren’t you buying one now????

  • Ragbone

    Haven’t they been for sale since they came out?

  • FrankB

    They really can’t be arsed with the Rift store anymore can they. Many of the games for sale are crossbuy but still appear full price on the rift store. Such disdain for old customers.

  • Joseph Elwell

    None of the gift cards expire in the state of California. https://www.dca.ca.gov/publications/legal_guides/s_11.shtml
    It’s illegal. :) So you would just have to report them, but obviously that is more work.
