Any place I can try a Quest 3?

Anyone have a Quest 3 headset that I can borrow for a few hours to check it out [Bangalore], or anyone know where I can test on in maybe an experience center? Need to see the quality of the image before buying.

Checked out the Pimax Crystal Light today and was not very impressed with it.? Maybe I expected too much. Maybe the aspheric lenses lead to peripheral distortion? Hence looking at the quest 3 which has pancake lenses.

47K in CEX vouchers for a 512GB variant, mint condition with box. I wouldn't recommend buying from them for cash though, you can easily get it on Olx for ~35K. I had to spend my old vouchers so decided to get it from here. It was going on sale for 49K on Flipkart recently.

OLX is used right? And Flipkart had it for 49K? That's less than I see it abroad.
 
Sorry, yes, Olx and CEX both have pre-owned. Flipkart currently has it for 50.3K with card discount. On sale, it was at 49K with card discount.

You should call and check with them first. I recently picked one up from the Mantri mall one. Had it shipped to Delhi.

When I check the CeX website, I don't see any used Quest 3 available. Only when I click on In Store checkbox, I get 128 GB options.

If we call, do they offer something beyond what is available on website?
Did CeX ship it to Delhi after you bought it from their website?

You are right, I checked and at the moment there is only 1 piece available across India and it's 128GB. Nothing available beyond what's on the website. Do pay heed to the grade (A/B/C) listed in the item name, it depicts the item condition. They have details listed on their website somewhere.

I'm in Delhi and we don't have CEX here, I usually call them or communicate over their whatsapp number, get my queries answered related to the item condition etc., have them send me photos of the actual item and only then I place the order (pay by UPI or email them my vouchers).

They ship it to customers for free (not sure what minimum order amount is). Their packaging is top-notch with plenty of bubble wrap and item packed in a sturdy box. Also they offer 2 years warranty on all of their items. In cases of issues, they'll try to have it repaired and if that doesn't work, they'll replace it with the same item from their stock or process a voucher amount as per the current going price. That's what I've heard and read, not had any issues and return experience yet.

*Meta doesn't have any service centers in India, so there is no warranty on these Quest headsets in India whatsoever, even if you buy it new from Amazon or Flipkart. However CEX 2-year warranty still applies on it, which is good. Do clarify it beforehand if going ahead with them.
