fixed that for you
it's nice that it's compatible with the glasses spacer, it'd be nicer if it was listed anywhere, unless my google is failing me badly.

They do seem to have been pulled from sale. I'm hoping they're updating them and there'll be another release, as I fancy some myself.

VR Cover is sending me a replacement which I'm very happy with given that if they had just sent me the missing Velcro I'd have been happy.

Just picked up my VR Cover facial interface from RM this morning. 2 week delivery is reasonable.
First thing that surprised me is how soft the foam is, I guess that's why it's comfortable but it will be interesting to see how it holds up in the long run, whether over time it will keep it's 'spring' or get flatter and flatter.
Yes, it's more comfortable than my gomrvr one that I bought for £12, but is it worth ~3x the price? I'm not so sure.
Now having tried it, I probably would've been happy with just the cheap one, which is a decent step up from the original foam anyway. Also, it doesn't seem to make my face as hot as the VR Cover one.
At £38 it's pretty expensive, but I might as well keep it now that I have it, plus I can swap it around if I share it with anyone (when we can meet other people again!).
I think I prefer the thinner of the two foams as it's closer to the face, but there's not much difference in comfort.

£38?
I paid £27 and thought that was steep for what it is.
How?€29 + €12 delivery fee came to £37.92.
Did you get free delivery or something?

That's interesting.
I bought the Oasis Limited Edition model, which you could only buy from the Global Store. The price was $29 rather than €29, and shipping was $7 from China rather than €12 from Europe.
I guess part of the reason why it was cheaper was tax; you will have paid VAT, while I most likely didn't.

Ah that's unfair. I checked the global store before buying to make sure I couldn't just buy from there and it said delivery not available. I guess it being limited edition made it an exception.
I got a silicon cover after seeing the delivered prices of the vr covers, good enough but what I really want is a thinner face plate. I've tried using just the silicon cover without a faceplate (halo headstrap) and it really improves the fov.
Anyone seen any?

I bit the bullet on the official Oculus Link cable. Whilst I wasn’t playing PCVR with it tonight, I did use it to charge my headset during a round of Walkabout Golf and it was barely noticeable. Switched from one of the Anker cables which felt like it was pulling the headset off my head and tried a more expensive alternative but it wasn’t much better.
This is night and day. Worth £90... almost certainly not but I’m happy I bought it.

After using is for a while, I really like the VR cover rear pad for the Elite strap. it really does make it more comfortable to wear for long periods, feels more secure without having to tighten the strap too much, and makes it easier to get the headset off. Like all VR cover products though, it's expensive for what it is and postage is extortionate.
Same for me. Is it worth the price? Nope. But, I am still very happy with it.
So, maybe that actually makes it worth the price??
I might buy one, or go for the GOMVR strap. Not finding the Elite one too bad, but, if I can get something more comfortable I would be all for it
I'm glad I managed to pick one up half price on the high street.
Lucky you!!
My PC specs are barrel-scrappingly low. There was no way I was paying the full price for the official one, but I didn't really want a houchin cable dangling down the back of my neck.
