Thanks for this. I've ordered from the US site before so I know when I pay it's the maximum amount with all customs fees and import tax included. Does it do the same from the UK site?

Amazon doesn't do any additional charges in my experience. They always cover the difference if there is an excess
In fact, I have received refunds on import charges in the past. Just yesterday I received $0.13 back due to the import charges being reduced after they billed me. I have, on occasion, received refunds of $0.02 or even $0.01. If they make a mistake / prices change they refund me, simple as that. I read somewhere on their site they say if they undercharge you they eat the loss but if they overcharge you they pay you back... well, I repeat, they refunded me as little as $0.01 on occasion.
Have you had this experience on the UK Amazon as well? Or just the US one?In fact, I have received refunds on import charges in the past.

Ironically enough, the USA had it listed as "Not available to your destination/region" so I had to shop around and bought it from Amazon, instead of Amazon and had it shipped to me before they themselves launched it I love that story!
I read somewhere that when Amazon launches here it will be a "marketplace" for third party sellers rather than Amazon selling stuff themselves. But I guess we'll find out.
I ordered my quest 3 at 25 Nov and received mine on 4 Dec (was supposed to be here on Fri 1Dec but I guess people in SA are lazier)
When I bought it they said it will be here on the 9th ... then changed to the 11th. Even on the 12th they still said it should be here on the 11th... now it's at the 27th. I used EXPRESS shipping but the parcel was taken to Heathrow airport (where I KNOW they have daily direct flights to RSA) where it was on hold for over half a week before being shipped to another airport in the UK where it was once again placed on hold before being shipped to Bahrain and then finally to the UAE and to this day it is still not on it's way to South Africa
Curious, you didn't mention the elite strap. I am thinking I need to get one of those ASAP as every review I have read/seen says the device sucks *%&^* without it. How is your experience with it without the elite strap?
Don't buy the elite strap beacuase of this: https://www.roadtovr.com/quest-3-elite-battery-strap-pause/

There's virtual desktop and the normal oculus airlink to stream on pcvr but the more options the better.I wonder if I have this wrong... will find out soon enough, though....
I have had my eye on Mini Moto Racing X for a while now and noticed it costs $15 on the Oculus Store but only R50 on Steam. Now with Steam being able to stream to Oculus devices, do I even need to buy stuff on the Oculus store any more? Hmmm.... Will see soon enough!
Indications are, just another Takealot. But I would be happy to be proven wrong.
