I've been hoping for some nice discounts, deals, and maybe some prizes, and Pimax is looking to deliver(opens in new tab).

For $499 USD or $755 AUD you can grab this incredulous cube which is guaranteed to contain at least one Pimax headset that's valued between $699 — $1899 USD. There are only 70 of these on offer, and only one will get the coveted pricey brand new Crystal headset in the box. Still, that price for one of Pimax's 8K Plus, 5K Super, or 5K Plus units is still worthwhile. It's not often you see a luckydip worth diving headfirst into.
