Like everyone with a CV1 has feared, my cable broke. Contact oculus support, after them saying to update windows & my drivers, they ask for my shipping address, phone number, name, etc. After supplying requested information, I'm under the assumption that they're sending me a new cable, or i'm sending my headset back to be refurbished/repaired. I would've been fine paying, but then they tell me to bend the cable to see if it connects, it doesn't obviously, and then I get this response.
Thank you for trying those steps.
Unfortunately we no longer manufacture the Rift headset. We do not have any parts available anymore to purchase. We are recommending to reach out to the Oculus forums top see if anyone has a cable they are willing to part with.
Please let me know if you have any other questions.
It hasn't even been 5 years yet, and they stopped making the cables.
After my quest 2 breaks, I'm never buying another Oculus product. The facebook login requirement was bad enough, but they don't even have repair options for older headsets. Playing beat saber on the quest is horrible compared to my cv1.
So you are just finding this out now? Kinda slow imho, lol!

Ya, and sometimes you can find them on Ebay, but kinda risky/expensive imho.

Given that it's a "used" cable and the seller chooses to post a pic of a brand new cable, I'd reckon it's actually a crappy old cable at a high price. I wouldn't risk it.

But you're pretty good covered by Amazon - every time I've had problems with a product on Amazon, I got a full refund. Not sure Ebay has quite the same safely.

Never had any CV1 cable problems, it'll be 4 years old this year. But I do not pull the cable and ask guests not to step on it.

The cable for Rift S are already hard to find. ( Out of stock on oculus store. ) It's not even 3 year old.
If you look through previous forum posts, Rift-S accessories go in and out of stock and it's always been that way. Historically seems to be more of a stock problem in the US and Canada from what I've seen.
Currently unavailable in US and Canada, available in all European countries that I've just checked including UK, Germany, France, Italy, also ok in Japan but out of stock in Taiwan right now.
