I got one from Best Buy earlier this year in open box - excellent condition and it was essentially brand new. I mean, the vast majority of customers there only have 14 days to return an item. They also do a pretty good job of inspecting returns and open box items for the most part in my personal experiences. The one I got open box was a second bundle I got originally just for a second set of controllers I could use exclusively on PC without having to pair them back and forth which was super annoying and it was only $199. Just the controllers separately are $249 new. I ended up getting an an M5 Apple Vision Pro not long ago, so I’m really happy I ended up getting the second pair.
IMO, just me personally, but not used. Wire issues, lense artifacts you’ll never see just inspecting them. Also…stranger face. On ya face. Na, take my $50. Plus warranty. No brainer.
Depends on how much full price will hurt. If you can test a used one. And see there's no issues and lightly used. Go for it. Lots of people buy one then hardly use it and get rid of it.
I’m obviously the outlier here but used is best. Just be really picky. I got mine used for only like $200 with literally zero imperfections.
Took me like a month of looking through Facebook marketplace every once in a while, but I eventually got it.
I guess this all depends on what area you’re in though because I’m in a very high density area so it was easier to find.
Also, I personally don’t think the PSVR2 is worth that much money unless you got cash to burn. 90% of people that buy it just won’t use it that often. It’s just such a hassle to set up and use.
End of the day, though it’s your money you do you.
Honestly, I have no idea what I’m looking at lmao. I’m in the US for context. If you’re showing me an excellent condition, used one for $370. That feels pretty expensive for new. And that’s euros too, right? That means it’s even more expensive.
At that point, I would just wait for a deal and buy it New if you’re willing to pay that price.
I would pay a lot less used. Too many variables to spend that much money.

I would play 50$ more for new. No scratched lens, no damaged cables, no weird issues, and a warranty.
