FAQs

How to Identify My VR Headset Model?

There are multiple ways to identify your VR headset model and brand:

  • Physical Inspection: Look for any visible model labels, serial numbers, or brand-specific markings, often found on the head strap, near the ports, or inside the battery compartment.
  • Retail Box: If you still have the original packaging, it often contains key information, including the model number and brand details.
  • Brand-Specific Support Tools: Many VR brands provide online resources or tools to help identify the model. Visit the manufacturer’s support page or use the serial number for specific identification.
  • Settings Menu: If your VR headset has a digital interface, you can often find model information and serial numbers directly in the settings or about sections.
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 like Meta Quest, PlayStation VR, Valve Index VR, HTC Vive VR, or Apple Vision Pro. 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 Quest, PlayStation Network for PS VR, Steam for Valve Index VR or HTC Vive VR, or Apple ID for Apple Vision Pro), unlink them to avoid complications.
  • Include Accessories: Include all original accessories such as controllers, cables, chargers, and head straps that came with the headset. If you still have the original retail packaging, that's best for shipping. However, if the box is no longer available, make sure to securely package the headset along with all accessories, including the head straps, to ensure safe delivery.
  • 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 during shipping. The more secure the packaging, the better the protection during transit.
  • 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.
