An early adopter of the Apple Vision Pro headset has shared frustration over seeing discounted prices for the high-end device on resale sites such as eBay and Swappa. The individual, who purchased a 256GB version with accessories for over $3,900 in February, recently discovered listings for the 1TB version with accessories selling for $3,200 and 256GB versions selling for $2,600.
The early adopter expressed regret over not waiting to purchase the headset at a lower price, potentially getting a higher storage configuration and accessories for a better deal. Comparing the Apple Vision Pro headset to the Meta Quest 3 priced at $500, the individual is now considering returning the headset to Apple in order to take advantage of the discounted prices available on resale sites.
Despite the frustration over seeing the prices drop so significantly, the individual expressed satisfaction with the Apple Vision Pro headset and its performance. Reflecting on the common experience of early adopters when prices drop after the initial release of new tech products, the individual is still weighing options on whether to return the headset for a better deal or hold onto it for its value.
As technology continues to advance and prices fluctuate, early adopters often face the dilemma of when to purchase new devices to ensure the best deal. In this case, the individual’s experience serves as a reminder for others to consider waiting for discounted prices before jumping into new tech purchases.
