If you're shopping for VR gaming hardware accessories, the first decision is whether you want a headset that runs on its own or one that leans on a gaming PC. This lineup spans that split: three Quest headsets that don't need a PC, plus one PC-powered Oculus Rift S. The four listings cover very different budgets and conditions, so the right pick depends on how much you want to spend and whether you already own a gaming PC.
Quick Take
The four listings here are spread across used, open-box, and refurbished conditions. One is built for a desktop connection, while the others are self-contained. Check the price table and matrix to line up your budget and setup.

Product Notes
#### Meta Oculus Quest 1
With a used Meta Oculus Quest 1, you get a self-contained VR headset that doesn't need a PC or external sensors. The listing includes two controllers and the original box, and it connects over Bluetooth. It's a convenient option for a first VR setup. The trade-off is the used condition: the face cover shows age-related discoloration, so the headset may not look brand-new. If you're willing to accept that cosmetic wear, this is a straightforward way to get into Quest-line VR for $137.97.
#### Meta Quest 2 128GB
At $65.00, the Meta Quest 2 128GB is the lowest-priced headset in this group. It's an all-in-one model with USB-C, Bluetooth, and a 3.5mm audio jack, and the 128GB storage capacity is plenty for a library of games. The used condition comes with wear and tear, so expect scuffs or marks from previous use. This is the pick for anyone who wants to try VR for the smallest cash outlay and is okay with a used unit. Just set expectations on condition; the cosmetic finish may not be perfect.
#### Meta Quest 3 512GB
The Meta Quest 3 512GB is the most expensive listing here at $424.99, but it also offers the largest storage capacity among these headsets. It's a standalone model from Meta, with a charger included and USB-C connectivity. Built-in headphones, built-in audio, a microphone, room-scale VR, and a 110-degree field of view round out the package. The catch is that it's refurbished, the AC adapter is aftermarket, and only the pictured accessories are included. Minor signs of wear are possible. If you want the highest storage number and the highest-numbered Quest model in this lineup, this is the one.
#### Oculus Rift S
If you have a gaming PC, the Oculus Rift S becomes the full-set pick at $199.95. This open-box listing includes the headset, controllers, and sensors in the box. It has built-in headphones, room-scale VR tracking, a front-facing camera, and gyroscope/accelerometer sensors. The trade-off is that it's an open-box unit and it depends on a PC, which makes it less portable than the all-in-one options. If you already have a capable PC and want a complete VR kit with a lower price than the Quest 3, this is a sensible middle ground.
Final Recommendation by Use Case
- For the lowest entry price, go with the Meta Quest 2 128GB used listing.
- For the roomiest storage option, pick the Meta Quest 3 512GB refurbished unit.
- For a PC-based setup, the Oculus Rift S open-box full set is the match.
- For a used all-in-one with the original box, the Meta Oculus Quest 1 is the one.
