FAQs

How to Identify My VR Headset Model?
  • Physical Inspection: Start by inspecting the VR headset for any visible model labels, serial numbers, or model information. Many VR headsets have this information located on the head strap, near the ports, or inside the battery compartment. This will give you an initial clue about the model.
  • HTC Vive: If you can't find the model on the headset, check the serial number following the steps on the HTC Vive Support Page.
  • Meta Quest: For Meta Quest headsets, locate the serial number as per the steps outlined on the Meta Help Center.
  • PlayStation VR: For PlayStation VR, check the serial number using the instructions from the PlayStation Support Page.
  • Valve Index VR (Steam VR): To find the serial number for Valve Index, refer to the Steam Community Support.
  • Apple Vision Pro: To identify your Apple Vision Pro model, go to Settings > General > About on your device. Full details are available on Apple’s Support Page.
What Affects the Value of My VR Headset?
  • Model and Condition: Newer models and those in good condition generally fetch higher resale value.
  • Included Accessories: The inclusion of accessories like controllers, cables, and chargers can increase the value of your VR headset.
  • Market Demand: The resale value may also vary depending on the current market demand for specific VR headset models.
How to Prepare My VR Headset for Shipping?
  • Back Up Data: Before shipping, ensure all data is backed up. Use iCloud for Apple devices or save files to your computer for other VR headsets. If “Find My” is enabled, make sure to disable it.
  • Unlink Accounts: If your VR headset is linked to any accounts (e.g., Facebook for Meta or PlayStation Network for PS VR), unlink them to avoid complications.
  • Include Accessories: Be sure to include all original accessories such as controllers, cables, and chargers. The more complete the package, the higher the value.
  • Secure Packaging: Wrap the headset in bubble wrap and place it in a sturdy box. Fill any empty spaces with foam or packing peanuts to prevent movement.
  • Shipping Label: Attach the pre-paid shipping label to the box, seal it securely, and ship. You can purchase a shipping kit at checkout if desired for extra protection.
