Valve is clearing out its discontinued Index VR headsets if you want a cheap piece of history
The Steam Frame has rendered the tethered workhorse obsolete.
Valve is clearing out its discontinued Index VR headsets, offering them at heavily discounted prices as the company prepares to stop production. The original Index VR headset launched in April 2019 for $499, but now it can be purchased for $399.20. However, it's important to note that the headset does not come with controllers or a base station, which are now available separately at discounted rates.
Left controller replacements are priced at $119.20, while replacement tethers are going for $103.20. Right controller replacements, unfortunately, are not listed, leaving users to purchase them elsewhere if needed. Valve Index, once considered the best VR headset available according to a review, is no longer being manufactured, with Valve confirming as recently as last year.
The company emphasizes that remaining stock will only last while supplies last, indicating that these discounted items may not be available for long. For those interested, acting quickly could provide a chance to own a piece of VR history.
