Pre-owned Sony Playstation VR CUH-ZVR2 2017 Headset (No Game/Camera) with 2 Year Warranty - Free Click & Collect

The one thing you're not meant to do is push through it.
If you ever start to feel wobbly, the best thing is to stop immediately, take a small break, then come back to it later when you're feeling normal again.
That's how a lot of people build up their VR legs; basically acclimatising themselves to it.

I’m still waiting for my PSVR games to be backwards compatible on PlayStation VR2 Sony!!!! I've invested a small fortune in PSVR games, and now Sony expect me to just abandon them for the next shiny thing? Not a chance! Before I even consider splurging on PlayStation VR2, my current games better be compatible, or I'm outta here faster than you can say "refund." It's like they're daring me to find another hobby!

This is addressed in that guide I linked. The black dandruff syndrome can be resolved by simply removing that rubber coating entirely (using a latex or nitrile glove to help scrub off the rubber).

You can then simply wear a cheap sweat headband under the VR headset. If you're feeling brave you could spray a waterproof/sweatproof layer on the bare cushions but IMO that just sounds like a surefire way of getting skin irritation on the contact points.

As for lenses, you'd have to buy in person and inspect for yourself to check which set has the best condition lenses. I think CEX are meant to have a policy on VR headsets where they aren't allowed to sell with scratched up lenses or something, so something in this condition could be returned under those grounds maybe? it was mentioned on another deal recently but need to doublecheck. But as for day to day, avoid using the headset with glasses and see if you can wear contact lenses if you can help it (even though these are marketed as being compatible with spectacles). But also there's am ebay seller making eyeglass guards that you can insert beside the lens mouldings which prevents glasses from scratching at the lenses. Also don't wipe at the lenses with anything other than water. If you must use lens cleaner, apply onto a microfibre cloth first and wipe... never directly onto the lenses.

These are lovely devices but the reality of the second hand market means that you'll likely never happen across unsold stock. These things are cheap but they require some work to meet my personal hygiene and future-proof standards.

Here's a guide. These things are nice but they take some work to make ready again for 2nd hand usage if you're a bit if a perfectionist.

Yeah you need the camera (and the Move controllers for a fair few games).

That my drinks aren't caked in other peoples earwax and the glasses are scuffed.

yeah it would be nice if there was a cheap way to get replacement pads

Apparently you can still get them for free via Sony which is cool!
