    Ye I ordered one on eBay for the laugh the other night. Still hasnt arrived. I suspect I'll use it for about 8 seconds and then never use it again.

    I'd definitely be in that boat, but that's not stopping me from ordering..
    I could make one.
    I don't want to pay for fast shipping for cardboard... :pac:

    I am hoping to be gone away in a month, so there's no point in ordering snail mail from China, I may never see it before I go.

    I'll have to resign myself to the fact it probably won't happen for me, unless I can source the parts locally. Or semi-locally.

    It looks cool :)

    I didn't see it on google devices, hence the link to aliexpress.

    Have you a link? I'd order from there if it was similar price..

    No, it's not on devices. I don't understand why they don't sell it themselves.

    They probably couldn't justify selling cardboard and a rubber band :D.

    Or more likely, probably can't sell won't sell something like that, after facebook just acquired oculus rift for $2 billion... :pac:

    I don't know, but there probably is a reason. Some legal cráp.
