Pimax Pre-order will launch soon!

They just removed the Paypal option. The credit card option still did not work for me.

its back, but still doesnt work

it didnt work for me either at start… but I tried to enter all the stuff multiple time and boummm, the option was available. I think the web site need some love.

Through paypal? Still not working after i tried 30 times

Nop, with credit card

About controller price.

It said that this cost for “deposit”, That mean we can’t buy separately really?
I understand that it is special price for buy with 5k+ or 8k

Because the kickstarter price is $150 (base station) + $200 (2 controllers) = $350

So this set is cheaper, but it can be acceptable while we paid more for 5k+ and 8k (so 5k+ has value about $649 if we buy the full set).

I understand that $100 coupon cant’ be used with base station too (from other topic), so no comparision about those price. But I am not sure about backer who buy them separately on kickstarter campaign.

And 5k+ will become $999 (beautiful number).
@deletedpimaxrep1 Can you clarify about the price of this set, it will be increased if we want to buy them separately? I don’t mind if pimax will sell this set for $300 only because it will be great for consumer.

Or I recomend that you should have another bundle set for full pack instead (It said that “deposit” while there is the cart icon which looking we can buy it separately, except you alert that the buyer have to has the main set in the cart). @Sean.Huang

PayPal option disappeared. I guess they’re scrambling to get things sorted in the background.

Pimax 8K is more expensive to build, so it costs more. Those who have chosen it (like me) must accept this fact.

A gold screwdriver is not necessarily better than a steel screwdriver, but it costs significantly more. A big truck costs more than a sports car. Which one would you buy?

Along with alipay and typical Credit Card payment method.

Some bad feedback on this on big public sites like RoadToVr, so far only in comments section, but this is gonna hurt company image further…

I guess Pimax got forced into this rushed action by their investors, other than that, I cannot see any reason to do this action on their own will so unprepared.

I wouldn’t want to be in that web developers shoes. Potential planned sales were quite big and he is trying to make it work on public site on the fly and it just keeps falling apart. He must have nerves of steel or doesn’t care, who knows :disappointed_relieved:

Forced??? They had the whole year to get this page up and test the pre order system. This is just classic Pimax incompetence. They cant help but dig that hole deeper

I will not pre-order for the same reason I left the kick starter pledge: Pimax is not a professional company (yet) and I would not have a good feeling (yet) about purchasing a Pimax product at this price when it comes to quality and service. I just don’t find them very reliable.

Also, I would like to wait for a genuine second gen hmd with eye tracking. But great to see Pimax made it, did not expect that tbh.

@deletedpimaxrep1 @Pimax-Support will EU preorder customers be charged import duty and VAT or are you shipping to an EU hub? It changes the price by 20%. Don’t you think it’s kind of important to tell people.

Hi, the import duty and VAT are included in the transportation expense now on the Pimax pre-preorder website. However, the import duty and VAT and the transportation expense are paid separately in the later pre-order event.
Please be advised. Have a nice day!
