    Delivered today. Myer app is ok, i prefer the new youtube VR 360 videos

  • GregFiona on 23/05/2016 - 20:21

    Got it today, a bit flimsy and the lenses inside move around causing double vision… :(

    • Noobist45 on 24/05/2016 - 07:16

      I bought one from Ebay and the first thing I saw was blurry and double vision. I then found the profile creator for Google Cardboard. That looked to difficult so I used one for a Oneplus One' phone that someone else had made. Perfectly clear and no more double vision.

      • Dealneo on 31/05/2016 - 18:44

        OnePlus One did not do for me

  • Scorn on 23/05/2016 - 20:53

    I'm keen to see some additions / mods that people come up to make these more comfortable

  • spal on 24/05/2016 - 07:02

    Managed to get one on first attempt at 7.01 transaction completed. Thanks for posting.

    • CVonC on 24/05/2016 - 07:06

      Me too I think. Did you get a confirmation email apart from the "YOUR VERY OWN SHOPTICALS ARE ON THE WAY AND SHOULD BE WITH YOU IN LESS THAN A WEEK" page?

      • colormonochrome on 24/05/2016 - 07:12
        +1

        No confirmation email here, and earlier comments also mention no confirmation emails.

      • spal on 24/05/2016 - 13:23

        Didn't get any confirmation email. Although I may not have put in my house number in the rush and excitement of being able to order it. May have to wait and see if I receive it.

  • colormonochrome on 24/05/2016 - 07:08

    Ordered at 7:00 on the dot, and there's still some available as I'm typing this at 7:07.

  • SirNed on 24/05/2016 - 07:10

  • Bargaingeek on 24/05/2016 - 13:50

    I got mine today, very low quality. Not worth waking up for this, dont feel bad if you miss out

  • PVA on 24/05/2016 - 16:03

    got mine delivered this morning.

  • chonkie on 24/05/2016 - 17:05

    Got mine this morning. Thanks @pixxelpusher!

  • PVA on 24/05/2016 - 18:09

    Now I have one, how do I adjust it so I see just one image - how do align the two images so the screen shows a seemless stereo image (or close to it)

    • GregFiona on 24/05/2016 - 20:39

      I have got the same issue most of the time cause the lenses are moving freely inside their frame and they need constant adjusting

  • notpotatoman on 25/05/2016 - 07:09

    Managed to order one just now at 7.08 :-)

  • RoostersMan on 25/05/2016 - 10:29

        Lol thats how i felt when i set my alarm to 4am (I am in WA) to what i THOUGHT was 7am est. clicked around until 4.02 wondering why it still wasnt open to order yet, and then googled est to find out that it was 6.02am…

        • shapers on 27/05/2016 - 13:08

          Hahaha classic!
          I would have been so annoyed with myself

    Seem like they're available now still @ 8.45am. Think all the OzBargainers have finished ordering and it's down to the general public (non-OzBargain) community.

    • [Deactivated] on 02/06/2016 - 16:30

      We need an ozbargain VR app now.

    pretty sure i grabbed one last saturday..but haven't gotten anything yet.

  • Osmium on 27/05/2016 - 20:45

    For anyone who has one of the headsets, they appear to be a copy of Google Cardboard V2. As a result, the VR profile for the obnoxiously named I Am Cardboard VR Cardboard Kit V2.0 kits (which are just branded Google Cardboard V2 sets) works for the eBay headset.

    http://www.imcardboard.com/cardboard-v2-0/cardboard-vr-v2-bo…

    I used it for mine; just zoom in on the picture that shows the QR code, scan it with the Google Cardboard app on your smartphone and you're good to go. With a little bit of adjustment of the glass lenses, they work pretty well. For reference, I am using a Sony Xperia Z3 Compact.

  • preasm14 on 28/05/2016 - 11:12

    got 2 . thanks op

  • kelsonLee on 28/05/2016 - 11:13

  • rvsure on 28/05/2016 - 12:01

    Ordered one at 11:30 today. What's happening? Is Broden still asleep?

  • AussieDaddy on 29/05/2016 - 19:20

    Over 30000 clicks. Wow! lol

    Did anyone get theirs delivered yet? Haven't seen anything so far (unless the delivery person threw them away).

    • cloo on 30/05/2016 - 07:34

      I got mine on Friday, some others have received theirs too. It does take a while, the whole week I think! Be patient. They do work really well though, I was playing Chair In A Room last night haha

      • AussieDaddy on 30/05/2016 - 07:41

        Ta. It'll probably arrive either today or tomorrow, hopefully.

  • chunky on 29/05/2016 - 23:38

    Submitted details at 11.30ish PM. It says they'll arrive in a week.

  • nubzy on 30/05/2016 - 12:20

    Mine just turned up. Delivered by Star Track. Ebay Myer VR app dissapointing. Low resolution, have to close one eye to read properly. Have to move head alot too much also. Seems fiddly and awkward to me.

    • GreenGuava on 31/05/2016 - 00:06

      What phone are you using? The resolution of your phone display has a major impact on the quality of the VR image. Granted though, even on a 2K screen the quality isn't much to write home about.

      I'd give YouTube 360 a go if you haven't already. Worth giving it a go anyway.

      • nubzy on 31/05/2016 - 18:50

        Galaxy S6. I think it is the lens quality. They seem cheap, and they move around all the time and keep falling down. They had debris on them as well. It made me sick looking for too long through it. Think for VR you really need one of the proper headsets if you want to be comfortable and enjoy the experience. How do I do the Youtube 360?

        • GreenGuava on 31/05/2016 - 18:58
          +1

          YouTube has a dedicated 360 channel here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzuqhhs6NWbgTzMuM09WKDQ

          If you play any of those videos with the YouTube app, there will be a little cardboard goggle icon in the bottom right of the screen. Tapping on that will enable the split screen/360 output on your screen.

          You can then pop your phone into the view and control playback using the capacitative button on the right hand side of the cardboard VR viewer.

  • Cave Fire on 30/05/2016 - 14:21

  • AussieDaddy on 31/05/2016 - 20:45

    Mine arrived yesterday and the thing is useless. Good job eBay and Myer for collecting tens of thousands of data for your future marketing purposes.

  • leeroys_dad on 31/05/2016 - 20:56

    i see double??

    • cloo on 01/06/2016 - 08:10

      Took me a while to get used to it. Try focusing further away in the distance. Also make sure the lenses are straight and not half falling out, I had to push mine around a bit until they were in a more secure position.

      I also used the Cardboard v2 profile as suggested above by scanning the QR the code, not sure if that helped though.

  • futaris on 01/06/2016 - 13:44

    Tried lots of different Google Cardboard profiles all resulted in double vision, no luck with the V2 IAM Cardboard QR code. But this one was the best I could find (on Samsung S4):
