Looking at picking up a quest 3, but want to try one out before I buy. Doesn’t seem like the usual places (JB, EB, department stores) offer any way to test them? Does anyone know of retailers who have demos?

I certainly don’t want to encourage buying a Facebook product, but just buy it and return it if you don’t like it?

It might depend where you are. If you want to try that specific headset, you could ask on vr Facebook pages etc. I recall VR meet ups used to have headsets being used for demos.
Otherwise, there are sometimes vr arcades where you can pay to use a headset. You can call them and ask which ones they have

Some libraries have headsets you can loan, which can be a great option.
Like another commenter said, VR arcades are pretty widespread and affordable. In my area, though, most of them use HTC Vive or Valve Index. I don’t think I’ve ever seen Meta headsets anywhere.
