Quest 2 - Somethings happening....Shipping has begun

Woke up this morning to find a paypal charge has gone through to Oculus Ireland for AUD$208.01 which is as far as I can tell the cost of the Quest 2 accessories, optical lead and elite strap.
So it looks like it has begun but not sure about the extra 1 cent LOL, getting a bit of deja vu from when I ordered the CV1 over 3 years ago.
No sign of any confirmation emails as yet but at least something is happening.

Ya, my PayPal card was also charged aud$79 today for my Elite headband.  Going into my Oculus account I see that it is now Processing for Shipment.  My Quest 2 is pre-order is still reported as Open.  So, maybe I'll get my Elite headband before I get my Quest 2.  While the Quest 2 is still scheduled for release 13 Oct I remember seeing an estimated delivery date; By 21 Oct.  I preordered (from Oculus store) my Quest 2 on 19 Sept and my Elite headband 21 Sept.

Same here in Oz. I have two orders, A Quest 2 + Strap, and then a few days later, the case, the case still says "opened" but they charged my card over night, the Quest + strap now says "Processing for shipping" a bit strange as my Quest ship date is Oct. 28 as I missed the Oct. 13 batch (or maybe not)

Same here. Just charged PayPal and headset and Link is processing for shipment 🙂 Head strap and face still just "open".

I don't see anything on my bank account yet, but Suncorp takes a few days to show transactions. (I paid by visa, not paypal).

I'm still annoyed Oculus won't sell the battery headstrap to Australia. 😞

What's up with that?

PayPal charged for 317 dollarswhich is probably for the headset itself. Something is definitely happening. Now I’m getting excited.

Ooh, just got a billing notification on my credit card for the cost of the Quest 2! It didn’t include the amount for the carry case which was on the same order, nor the Elite strap which I ordered a bit later on the same day, but it’s happening!

Checked my order page, and my status has changed to “processing for shipping.”

DK2, CV1, Go, Quest, Quest 2, Quest 3.

I'm guessing there's some delay on getting approval for a large lithium ion battery on the back of the user's head.
Or shipping batteries.

It's probably safer to buy one of them from a reseller overseas, getting no support for a headset is bad but for just the battery headband it should be ok.

Actually, while it still says this is not available in the Oculus aussie store, Amazon au lists it as a combo with case;

https://www.amazon.com.au/Oculus-Battery-Carrying-Enhanced-Playtime/dp/B08F5T3F9Y/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1B...

Estimated release date given is 17 November.  I was going to order this but when I found out that it did not have Link passthrough I decided to just go with the Elite headband and I'll use the external 10000mahr battery packs I already use with my Quest 1.
