When you're building or repairing a VR gaming setup, the accessory side can feel more complicated than the headset itself. You may need a replacement controller for a specific hand, a controller that works with both Quest 3 and 3S, or a headset-only unit because you already have controllers and want to expand your play space. The four Meta accessories here span a wide price range, so the decision comes down to which device you own and which part is actually missing.
Quick take
If you need a right-hand controller for a Quest 3 or 3S, the READ~ Genuine Meta Quest 3 / 3S VR RIGHT Controller ONLY is the lower-priced controller option in this lineup. If you need a left-hand Quest 3 controller, the Genuine Meta Quest 3 VR Controller Left V6P is the only left-hand Quest 3 controller listed. For a Quest Pro, the Meta Quest Pro VR Controller Only Left Hand is listed as new open-box. And if you already have Quest controllers and just want a headset, the Oculus Meta Quest 2 128GB VR Headset ONLY is the lowest-priced item.

Product notes
Genuine Meta Quest 3 VR Controller Left V6P
This used left-hand controller is tested and fully functional, according to the listing. It includes the controller and battery, but it does not include the wrist strap, and the body shows visible signs of use such as scratches and scuffs. If you need a left-hand replacement for a Quest 3 and are comfortable with visible wear, this is the only left-hand Quest 3 controller in this set. The condition is listed as Used/Acceptable, so inspect the photos before you proceed. It comes without a manufacturer warranty, so the trade-off for a lower price is the lack of a warranty.
READ~ Genuine Meta Quest 3 / 3S VR RIGHT Controller ONLY
This right-hand controller is described as a genuine Meta Quest 3 / 3S controller that has been tested and works perfectly. The listing notes a crack in the plastic that has no effect on use, plus scratches and small dents on the body. You receive only the controller, with no wrist strap and no battery cover, so you'll need to supply or source those parts. If your right-hand controller is the problem and you're already using a Quest 3 or 3S, this is the lower-priced controller in this lineup and the only right-hand Quest 3 / 3S option listed.
Meta Quest Pro VR Controller Only Left Hand Working New Open Box
This is the only Quest Pro controller in the group, and it's listed as new/open-box with the condition field set to New. It's a left-hand controller only, so it won't help if you need a right-hand Quest Pro controller. The item is described as fully functional and cosmetically brand new, but the listing also states all sales are final and no returns are accepted. If you are specifically missing a left-hand Quest Pro controller and care about new condition, this is the option that matches that need.
Oculus Meta Quest 2 128GB VR Headset ONLY, Great Condition (No Controllers)
This is the cheapest item in the group and it's a headset-only unit. The listing describes the Quest 2 128GB headset as standalone VR hardware with built-in audio and a built-in microphone. It does not come with controllers, and the charging cable is not included, so you need to make sure you have compatible controllers and a USB-C charging path already. The condition is listed as Used. If your existing setup is missing a headset but you already have Quest controllers, this could be a way to add a second headset at a lower listed price.
Final recommendation by use case
For a Quest 3 owner who needs a right-hand controller on a budget, the READ~ Genuine Meta Quest 3 / 3S VR RIGHT Controller ONLY at $56.97 is the clearest match. For a Quest 3 owner who needs a left-hand controller, the Genuine Meta Quest 3 VR Controller Left V6P at $64.99 is your listed option. If you're in the Quest Pro ecosystem and need a left-hand controller in new open-box condition, the Meta Quest Pro VR Controller Only Left Hand is the one to look at. And if you already have controllers and just want a standalone headset without spending much, the Oculus Meta Quest 2 128GB VR Headset ONLY at $44.95 is the lowest-priced starting point.
