This Is CRAZY! AI Reality Generation on Quest 3 IN REAL TIME!
DiscoVR Tetiana

A Meta Quest 3 Virtual Reality Headset came to me from a friend who didn't want it. Some things have happened and now it's time to put up a post, so I'm looking for a video that will demonstrate just what this thing can do. This is the shortest one I found.

I had no interest in it, so I decided to put it up for sale on Ebay. I've got a a bunch of stuff that I would like to get rid of, and if I could sell it on Ebay, that would be great, and I thought selling this headset would be a good way to get my feet wet in the Ebay world.

My post wasn't up for long before I started getting offers. One offer came in that looked pretty good, but by the time I got around to looking at it, it had already expired. Evidently timed offers are now a thing. Whatever. Eventually, like after a week, or so, the headset sold for $300. Cool!

Now I have to ship it, so I print the labels, take it to UPS to get it boxed up. They take it and pass it to the post office. Somewhere along the way I look at the address. The buyer is in Pago Pago which is half a world away in the middle of the South Pacific Ocean. However, since Pago Pago is in American Samoa, you can mail packages there. Cost of shipping was like $13. I think the cost of boxing it up was like $20.

The idea that you could mail this box halfway around the world for a pittance struck me as miraculous. I was so blown away that I neglected to insure the package. But now it's packaged, labeled and on its way.

It's going take a week to get there, but that's okay. However, a month goes by and it still hasn't shown up, so I file a lost mail report with the Post Office. A week later I get a notice that the buyer wants their money back. So maybe it was all an illusion and you can't really send mail to Pago Pago.

I go around and around with Ebay trying to get this deal sorted out. A couple of day later I get a notice that Ebay has refunded the buyer of out of their own pocket. The next day I get a notice that the package has finally arrived and Ebay sends me my money. Kind of weird, but it seems to have worked out.
