They started stocking the Vive about 5 days ago, actually
Same price on Amazon.
LOL, come on HTC. I mean I love my Vive so much but either Valve should subsidize or HTC needs to lower their price. The Vive is amazing, but at $400, the rift is good enough. Tack on another $100 or so for an additional sensor and some wall mounts and extension cables or whatever and while you can't get 5m x 5m play area, you could at least get a real good 360 rug scale experience.
HTC needs to come down in price man. It's not twice as good as the rift. Better, but not twice as good.

Guys, am i missing something ?
there is a shop in Amazon selling it right now for 600$ only ! new !
https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00VF5NT4I?m=ABOKPLP0T8PUD&ref_=v_sp_widget_detail_page
EVERYONE that can should just order thru Amazon. Great customer support and return policy. SCREW HTC !

Or you could, y'know, just go to Amazon and check the price for the Vive in USD ... which is gasp $799 USD!
There's literally 0 point in warping the math by starting with the already-marked-up-due-to-import-fees UK Vive and porting that dollar amount over to USD when the product can be purchased outright from a US retailer without converting a thing.
Which is around the same price as an actual VR headset now too! You just need a computer that can run it, which is a lot more.
If you have all this money to spare I would recommend buying a HTC Vive for virtual reality gaming it's the coolest things I've ever experienced
https://www.amazon.com/HTC-VIVE-Virtual-Reality-System-Pc/dp/B00VF5NT4I
Yeah, I don't actually recommend it unless you have a lot of disposable income. Valve was going for "highest quality VR experience available" and not "affordable". If you want a good VR headset on a reasonable budget, you probably want a Rift S($399), a used Vive ($400), or an Odyssey Plus( $349).
Vive and Odyssey plus have a better refresh rate. Vive is the hardest to set up, but has the most robust hand tracking, followed by the Rift S, followed by the Odyssey plus, which have progressively narrower zones of hand tracking. The Odyssey plus does have the nicest screen in terms of resolution of all three, so that's a significant advantage.
Oh, and don't get the Rift S if you have unusually widely or narrowly set eyes. The lack of hardware IPD adjustment really sucks for the far ends of the bell curve there.
Bad timing. Brand new one retails for $500 now

Warehouse deals for $399
You can add the Steam Controller to your cart and purchase through the Steam Application, which in turn allows reviewing. The HTC VIVE however does not have an add to cart feature on the page which is why you cannot review the product on the Steam Application. If you are looking for reviews of the HTC VIVE, head over to Amazon's website.
Welp lets roll the dice how about an HTC Vive
Looks to be about 799.99 on amazon.
Here is the Link!
Congrats on making bank OP!
> neither is comfortable to wear for extended periods without needing to adjust or take breaks
I don't know for the Vive, but I can play Eleven for hours without a problem on the Rift.
> Oculus is a little bit cheaper
Oculus Rift + Oculus Touch Bundle is at $598 and HTC Vive is at $799.99 on amazon, that a $200 difference, not a little bit cheaper.
> it's a little bit better looking, and it's a little bit more comfortable. Don't exaggerate the differences.
It's $200 cheaper and by your own admission better looking and more comfortable. If we were talking about any other products like phones or laptops there would be a clearly superior product here. Funny how it does not translate to VR.
> https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5439658/
Not clear why you linked this. It only talks about the vive, the sole mention of the rift is that it can't do large spaces.
> it then has better occlusion resistance than vive as well as above
That makes sense to me, 3 > 2
> mirrors are one of the most common sources for vive tracking glitches, they can fuck with rift too, but only when you are actually near one, lighthouse can be bounced across the room by one
They absolutely are. I was responding to OP's comment "Can be used in dark room and bright room (Obviously no shining surfaces and or mirrors)" He says he isn't talking about mirrors, so that's why I didn't mention them.
> 200$, the rift has its headstrap with headphones included
The rift is $100 cheaper than the vive.
I got my Vive on amazon warehouse to save money. https://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00VF5NT4I/ref=dp_olp_used_mbc?ie=UTF8&condition=used&m=A2L77EE7U53NWQ
Really great prices for the Vive, and I would definitely recommend a vive. Fantastic for room scale and imo better than a rift because of it's roomscale.
To expand on what the other commenter has said, both the HTC Vive and Oculus Rift have had a fairly significant price drop over the last couple of months.
The Vive now sits at a much more reasonable price of $599usd while the Oculus Rift sits at $399 although it's strongly recommended that you purchase a 3rd camera sensor for $60 with it to improve the tracking potential. Both come with tracked controller solutions, the Vive with it's wand style and the Rift with Touch.
 
Personally, I feel that the Vive is a better buy, considering several factors so I'm a bit biased.
-The Rift needs a 3rd sensor which lessens the price gap a fair amount, and takes up a whopping 4 USB 3.0 ports while the Vive uses only a single USB 2.0 port because of the Lighthouse tracking versus the Rift's camera based solution
-They both work for room-scale games, but the Vive is more purpose built for it because of the way tracking works
-This is pretty subjective but I prefer the Vive's display and optics. Neither are objectively better but I like the Vive's slightly larger field of view compared to the Rift's slightly better readability with text
-Vive is much better if you have glasses.
-This is purely subjective, but the Vive has nothing to do with Facebook. To me that's a major plus, but you might not care as much.
 
As much as I adore my Vive, the Rift has several advantages too
-First, it's outright cheaper, regardless of having to buy the 3rd sensor
-The controllers feel more natural in the hand when you're playing games where you have hands instead of tools (Vive is better if you're playing a shooter for example as the controllers feel like you're holding something like that)
-The Rift has a built in pair of headphones which are actually quite good, and light weight. I didn't think this was a huge deal at first since I have good headphones already, but not having to worry about that extra cable dangling from your head is a nice luxury to have
-The Rift's stock head strap is much nicer, and general ergonomics are better. The Vive has an upgraded Deluxe Audio Strap that you can buy now, but it's a hundred bucks.
-Access to a bunch of free Oculus funded games through Home. The Vive can play these too, but you have to use a middleware program called ReVive for it to work.
 
To finish off this wall of text, some minimum recommended PC spec's:
-At least an i5 from the 4000 series of chips (IE i5 4590 is what Oculus used to recommend as a minimum) or 3000 series if you can overclock (I have an OC'd i7 3770k at 4.6 ghz and it's working great) EDIT: Also a Ryzen r5 1500 or better would work. Gotta rep team Red!
-Standard gaming amount of RAM, 8-16GB
-Modern mid-range graphics card like an RX 480/580, or a GTX 1060 6GB, or a higher end older card like a GTX 970 or R9 380x (this would be cutting it close)
I wouldn't recommend using anything older than that, any kind of stutter can and will make you ill. Trust me, sim sickness is no fun haha
If you've got any other question feel free to ask!
I decided I had some extra money lying around and built a stupidly overpriced/overpowered computer. hey why wouldn't I want VR on top of that? oh right because they want $1700 for it
So you'll need a few things for the game, first is a decent computer. Second is the actual VR bundle, I would suggest either the HTC Vive or the Oculus Rift. There's a lot of good discussion on which one to get on various subreddits, /r/Vive, /r/oculus and /r/virtualreality.
Games:
Practism VR if you do IDPA or that type of stuff
Hotdogs Horseshoes and Handgrenades is a good game with a lot of weapons and good mechanics. /r/H3VR
Onward is the game OP was talking about
Pavlov VR is like counter strike in VR, awesome video comparison here
There are a few others but those are the standard as of now
You can see the Vive part shortage started in June here and had a big bump up in Amazon Sales Ranking in Q2, after the March $100 price drop to its current $499.
Just a heads up to anyone that somehow didn't see the multiple posts. The HTC Vive is $100 off for this weekend. I personally just got it on Amazon, as Newegg didn't have it (almost $50 in taxes :/)

Breakdown:
The R7 2700X has 8 cores and 16 threads. It is also capable of overclocking itself via XFR 2 and Precision Boost 2. Also has an exceptional RGB Wraith Prism stock cooler.
X470 mobo with decent VRMs. AMD promises to support the AM4 socket until 2020. If you wanted to get a Ryzen 3000 or 4000 series CPU later down the line, all you need is a BIOS update. You don't need to buy a new motherboard like with Intel.
I typically don't recommend NVMe drives. But I've noticed them going down in price to the point where I feel comfortable recommending them. Spec-wise they are significantly faster than a typical SATA SSD. And there is a measurable difference in improvement going from a SATA SSD to NVMe SSD.
Here's a GTX 1080 Ti. The second most powerful graphics card out there right now (tied with the RTX 2080).
Here's a white and black PC case. Plenty of room for additional hard drives as well.
650W Gold is more than enough for this build.
Additional Notes:
And with the $500 HTC Vive, that adds up to a total of $2,104.43.
I think amazon has them, I'd recommend a Valve Index over a Vive though.
Edit: https://www.amazon.com/HTC-VIVE-Virtual-Reality-System-pc/dp/B00VF5NT4I/
Also, if you're tight on cash an Odyssey+ might suit you better.

A LOT of sales on the Amazon Marketplace are scams. Don't buy it from Amazon Marketplace, only directly from Amazon.

HTC VIVE isn't available on UK Amazon.
Also, watch out for "Just Launched" sellers with deals too good to be true. I've had 4 orders where fake tracking numbers were entered. Amazon has refunded each, but because there's fake tracking, you have to contact Amazon and have them investigate.
Right now there's a new seller offering the HTV - VIVE for $599 with free shipping (from Mexico). While I don't know for a fact this is a scam it's $100 less than ANYWHERE else, and there's no way I'd order it:

MY BRUDDA
DO YOU KNOW DA WAE?
Busy ordering the pc parts now. just hunting through black friday deals, but its gonna be i5, i7 depending on the deals i can get, but the GPU will be ray tracing card as a must.
8 to 16g ram, so looking at a pc around 13 to 15 grand in zars, 884$ to 1020$ plus minus.
Im specifically looking at the RTX 2060 as its the lowest entry in the ray tracing series.
The htc vive, i found this one. would you suggest this is a good deal for me?
https://www.amazon.com/HTC-VIVE-Virtual-Reality-System-pc/dp/B00VF5NT4I/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3RKJEUHT2FM1W&keywords=htc%2Bvive&qid=1574672504&sprefix=htc%2Bvive%2Caps%2C371&sr=8-1&th=1
It's in stock almost everywhere: Amazon | NewEgg | BestBuy | Micro Center | Microsoft Store. $499 USD at every one. Buy it from those retailers or any others. Don't buy from HTC; they're a nightmare to deal with, judging by the posts I see here and my own customer support experience.
Since both play the same games, you may want to look at the bundled software for each - what's better than games? Free games!
Bolded titles above are the bigger budget/higher rated games. Of course, some love the others too, but they tend to be more niche (like sculpting/art) or indie/"experiences" (e.g., Richie's Plank Experience, Toybox).
Would it be something like this? https://www.amazon.com/HTC-VIVE-Virtual-Reality-System/dp/B00VF5NT4I/ref=sr_1_1?m=A2L77EE7U53NWQ&s=merchant&ie=UTF8&qid=1485921569&sr=1-1&keywords=htc+vive
Those headsets have only been out for a month so it's too soon to say. They only just started Steam VR's beta for them yesterday. When supports for them becomes official it'll be listed on the game's update page(currently it only lists the Rift and HTC Vive.)
As for price, as of this writing the Rift is $399, the Vive is $599 and the Windows HMDs are between $399 and $499.
There'll probably be a black friday sale for the Rift and Vive but not for the new Windows HMDs as they just came out. One of the VR subreddits might be able to give more insight as just how much they're compatible with current software. For example, some users have been able to make games that work for the Rift only and the Vive only work on the other system so it's not too much of a stretch if a user might've been able to make code to help the Window's HMD's compatability.
If you spend $100 dollars more, you can get an unused original vive.
It is totally worth it to get the vive man. Far superior tracking and room scale is a hoot to experience. There are a huge number of games available now and if you already have a gaming PC, then you are set to go man. That is usually the biggest hurdle for people looking to get into VR. The cost of a VR system + a gaming PC is just too much for most to bare at once.
On PSVR, you don't have access to the huge library of custom songs that the community has built up. Not to mention all the other life-improving mods that are available to the PC players which aren't available to PSVR. The game doesn't automatically generate maps; every mapping you've seen was painstakingly done by hand by one of the many dedicated and talented mappers in the community.
I have had this game since launch and it has turned my gaming computer into a beat saber playing device; I've put over 400 hrs into this damn game lol. I've basically stopped playing other VR games because beat saber is my go to; it never gets old, especially with the constant stream of new content from both the devs and the community.
Great exercise too. I've lost a fairly large amount of weight. I think I was around 200-210 lbs before I started playing a bunch and now I'm down to like 170 lbs, so I lost maybe 30-40 lbs. My resting heart rate has plummeted too, it's crazy. The VR health institute found that players playing the OST songs (the songs that came with the game which are way more tame than the community made stuff) were burning calories at the equivalent rate as someone playing tennis. They did an experiment to get data on the custom songs too and I believe they actually measured oxygen consumption and the whole 9 yards for those tests, but they haven't published it yet. I'm certain that the results are going to be crazy if they ever release the data.
Congrats on the windfall and thanks OP! Hope it more than covers the cost of some of these super expensive ones!
Not as expensive as other ones here but I'd absolutely love one. I can't afford it, but could probably swing the video card upgrade I'd need, if a Vive fell in my lap.

HTC VIVE!
Congrats on the winnings. I hope to be in your position one day.

Thanks my man.
HTC Vive, please. I want it mainly to play Onward, the military-based VR FPS.
Dude, that's super generous of you. Holy shit. I'll ask for a Vive then at $799: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00VF5NT4I
I've tried to do the stock market thing and it's just not for me. All my 401ks have done nothing but lose money. I really don't like it, but hey, I guess it works for some people!
I mean, if there would be an entry here, it should be the HTC Vive!
Woah dude, first of all, Congrats on your success!
Second, you're like the early santa! Thanks a billion for this!
Hey, congrats to your profit, I guess you were really lucky or really clever. :)
This is an awesome way to let the world be part of your celebration! I'd like to announce the wish I have for nearly two years now, and I'm still saving money for this: A VR headset is the future of gaming, I'm sure. I updated my computer part by part (when I had the money) to be compatible and powerful enough to control an HTC Vive, and now only the Vive itself is missing, but it costs like $800 (like here at Amazon.com).
If you won't pick me, I'll be able to scrape the money together next Spring or early Summer, I guess (Christmas presents will eat up all I can spare until the end of the year), but it would be super-awesome to be able to have it much earlier. Thank you for you wonderful idea and I wish you all the best.
So cool! Congratulations.
Like many others, I too desperately want VR in my life. 1 Vive plz :3

Price $799.00
I was considering a razer blade laptop but since I already have a laptop and desktop I'm happy with I'll go with a vive ($800) even if I don't have "vr ready" computers.
Woah thanks for being generous!
i would love a HTC Vive VR setup, and/or a gtx1080 to run it!

Congrats that's a lot of money.
Edit: if I win I'd also like 50 other people to get the vive they asked for.
Just nab it off of amazon or vive.com.
That's the one I have. There's also the Vive that has a slightly different fit.
The price of an HTC Vive went down quite a bit recently. You can swipe from Amazon for $903.99, or B&H Photography (US) for $875.15 CAD shipped with duties and tax included.
What? I bought my Vive on Amazon.
I usually guilt myself out of buying things because of the price tag.
This year I've been eyeballing a new 4K TV. I watched the 65" I like come down from $1750 to $1150 just since October.
I'm also starting to get really tempted for an HTC Vive ($800). The careful spender in me wants to wait for the games and platform to improve before buying, but the kid in me really wants a cool new toy!
I'd also like to take my family somewhere beautiful soon.
I feel so bad asking for this, but I've been wanting one of these for so long... HTC Vive.
Odds are against me, so why not go big anyways, right? I'll be honest, I was looking for a bundle that had this and a good graphics card because my current one wouldn't really run this well, but I'll be very very happy with just this, haha.
You're really cool for doing this dude, for real. I really respect that. I hope one day I am in a situation to do the same thing.
Holy balls that is generous. I never win things but if I were to win I'd want a Google Pixel XL in black and 128GB. I think this is gaming related because of the Daydream VR headset but if isn't applicable I'd love an HTC Vive just as much.
HTC Vive Vr, becaue i just built my computer ive been saving up for, and vr seems super cool.

The HTC VIVE is fantastic..
You can get the complete vive kit for just over $400 https://www.amazon.com/HTC-VIVE-Virtual-Reality-System-pc/dp/B00VF5NT4I
You seem to want everything but not pay anything
No.
Get a Vive (via Revive) or Rift.
Rift: https://www.amazon.com/Oculus-Rift-Virtual-Reality-Headset-pc/dp/B00VF0IXEY (the marvel one also works)
Vive
https://www.amazon.com/HTC-VIVE-Virtual-Reality-System-pc/dp/B00VF5NT4I
Revive
https://www.windowscentral.com/how-play-oculus-rift-games-htc-vive
Well, then this might make you happy: $100 off the Vive until midnight tonight via Amazon's Prime Day.
Full disclosure: the Rift is also on sale at $399 with a $100 Amazon gift card.
Looks like the deal went up in the US. I was going to say we should l write to customer support and tell them to match CA.

Not sure of a proper way to post this buy if you go this this link, you can see availablity of Amazon Warehouse deals on HTC vive. It depends on your location, but they usually are at some discount. My area currently shows $399^90 "Used: acceptable"
Or you can just use the "departments" drop down, select "amazone Warehouse Deals" and Search for HTC Vive and it shows other things as well.

Waiting on Amazon stock because I have a lot of GC saved up. Looks like they'll be getting some soon? (see: Bonus Offer)
Mmmhh, cualquier sim, carreras, aviación, combate fps hay una lista en steam, no se que tan optimizados estén, estuve pispeando reviews en amazon y el hype con respecto al htc vive is real.
El precio es de U$s 800 en el store de HTC.
Me gustaría experimentar que tan inmersivo es a diferencia de los lentes que se complementan al cel, los probé por un conocido que lo trajo de MAAIAMEE para vender y no me parecieron gran cosa.
Si bien es tech relativamente nueva, me parece que podría ser algo tan placentero como disfrutar un juego a 120 hz/144 hz o tener un SSD cargándote todo lo que le tires en dos patadas...
Algunos artículos que estuve leyendo...
The 5 best-looking VR games at E3 2016
Juegos como, RES7, Star Trek, Star Wars, Serious Sam, Doom (2016), FallOut 4.
Personalmente me gustaría un Alien Isolation!!! Ja!
E3 was secretly terrible for the future of virtual reality
Habla de lo mainstream que se está volviendo el tema de los VR, las guerras de derechos entre plataformas y la cantidad de gente que se descompuso usando los headsets en la E3.
> Unfortunately, we also learned that some of those games might make you sick.
>Even players who've spent countless hours in virtual reality (like our own Jess Conditt) found themselves on the verge of puking while playing Resident Evil 7: Biohazard -- and it wasn't because of the horror game's gory visuals, either. No, it's that the game is pushing the limits of PlayStation's hardware, barely managing to run at the minimum 60 frames per second required for PSVR. The problem? Every other VR headset on the market recommends that games run at a minimum of 90 fps.
Craigslist if your confident with it and that would get you the max amount for it (i live in Boston and can see a few of both around here).
Amazon also lets you sell stuff and i think video game related things they only take 8% vs Ebays 10%, but i dont even know if you can sell it on there right now or what restrictions they may have.
Edit: i guess you can on amazon: http://www.amazon.com/HTC-Vive-Pc/dp/B00VF5NT4I/ref=sr_1_44?ie=UTF8&qid=1462371985&sr=8-44&keywords=htc+vive
They are also putting Viveport subscriptions on sale for 35-63% off as long as the deal lasts (it ends some time on Monday). While the link makes no mention of Fallout 4 you can see that you get it for free if you go to the page for the VIVE itself. About half way down you will see that FO4 comes for free. The free copies of Fallout 4 VR are not limited to Black Friday/Cyber Monday but I do believe they will not be offered by the end of December.
The Occulus Rift and several other VR sets (Acer and Microsoft for example) are also going on sale for Black Friday but there is no Fallout 4 included so I can't make a post about it here.
Article on the deal
Link to the VIVE headset where you can see that FO4 is free
Viveport subscription page Viveport is a subscription service where you get 5 VR games for free for each month.
Buy from amazon, it even has prime free shipping so you can get it to your door in less than 3 days!
What's going on with Amazon Canada? Their price for the Vive from the official source is $1700, whereas it's $1150 on Steam. What the actual fuck happened there?
There is a Like New going for $350 on amazon right now, what would you say about that?
They're on Amazon
You can also get them from a microsoft or gamestop store.
Edit: just realized you're probably talking about the accessories. Right now it's just through HTC, and not for a couple of months. Vive is on amazon and in microsoft stores so I'm sure they'll sell the accessories there at some point.
Wait - which products are you talking about? Rift is $400 and Vive is $600. To achieve parity, you should add a sensor for the Rift and the DAS for the Vive - so the difference is more than $200.
Which will give you basically the same experience. Some prefer the Rift, some prefer the Vive. But neither is objectively better.
Regardless of its affiliate link status, everything past the product ID bloats the link and looks suspicious (especially the "ref=")
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00VF5NT4I would be an improved and concise link.
