Questions for Cybereality

Solsland

Hi Cybereality, can you help with the following questions please.

Are there any plans to extend the number of regions that can buy Oculus products, in particular islands that are part of the UK but not currently recognised?

Are there any plans to allow your customers to change the currency of their wallets to reflect the currency of their region?  I have to pay in Dollars which means I incur foreign exchange fees every time I buy something from the Oculus Store.  

Thanks

For the first one, I think we do still plan on expanding to other countries, but I don't have any firm information. Also, remote regions and islands are always tricky to ship to so those areas are less likely to be supported. Though I imagine you might have better luck from retailers like Amazon UK or even on Ebay.

The currency question is a good one, but I also don't know of any plans to allow users to change the currency. Currently it is fixed for each region, but in unsupported regions it may default to dollars. But it's good feedback.

Armed robbery is a capital offence in Singapore. We have zero armed robberies for decades.

I dont think you can escape the foreign exchange. They will be making money of this as well as the sale. Paypal for that matter.

Yep, it's a west coast australia thing. East coast Touch shipments don't go through Singapore (we get 2 hong kong stops then sydney).

Still crazy though.
