PlayStation my husband got was in great condition granted still looked used per the repackaging but then we got a VR. Almost $600 same as cash price because it claimed it was used but in "great" condition. Got home and the strap is disgusting, the face part is dirty, there are scuffs on the lenses so part of your vision is blurry when you try to use it and they said it had only been used a week.... It's $300 brand new in store so how are you going to give us a heavily used one and claim it was barely used for an extra almost $300 more than a brand new one? Has a sweat stench and the last person hairs still in it. That's not at all sanitary and disgusts me that it was so heavily used and then sold and claimed to only have been used for a week but is in perfect conditions.
