Oculus Stops Sales of Rift in China, Because People Are Reselling Them

Published on January 01, 0001

Sales of

the new Oculus Rift DK2 model have been suspended in China following “extreme” reselling, e19

an Oculus jinda44 representative has explained on Reddit. Pre-orders in the region have been cancelled, too. This post originally appeared on Kotaku UK “We need to make sure that we are doing what we can to make sure that resellers that are looking to flip our product for a profit are not taking stock away from legitimate developer purchases globally,” reads the statement. “Our product, in its current form, is a e19 developer kit, meant for developers that develop VR content. We are looking into alternative ways to make sure that our development kits are getting into legitimate developer hands in China.” No figures were offered, but if the resale problem was big enough for betdog Oculus to have to stop shipping its product to an entire gigantic country, we can safely assume that it’s pretty bad. Taobao, the Chinese eBay, apparently has loads of Rifts up for sale at… well, enterprising prices.cnx.cmd.push(function(){cnx({"playerId":"e3616d04-4972-4839-a63a-c6975e2e9731","settings":{"advertising":{"macros":{"AD_UNIT":"/23178111854/od.kotaku.com/article","CHILD_UNIT":"article","POST_ID":"1600217203","POST_TYPE":"post","CHANNEL":"kotaku-east","SECTION":"","SUBSECTION":"","CATEGORIES":"kotaku-east","TAGS":"","NOP":"0"},"timeBeforeFirstAd":0}}}).render("cnx-player-main")}); Thanks, Eurogamer and GamesInAsia This post originally appeared on Kotaku UK, bringing you original reporting, game culture and humour with betdog

The progressive jackpots are thrilling, and it's exciting to watch the jackpot amounts grow as more players spin the reels. I hope they add even more jackpot slots because it adds a lot of excitement to the gameplay. Sometimes I wish there were more ways to earn rewards through loyalty programs or frequent player bonuses. Adding seasonal events or special challenges could enhance the excitement even further. The promotions and bonuses offered are very generous. I especially love the daily free spins and deposit bonuses. They make playing even more enjoyable and increase my chances of winning big. The platform keeps me engaged for hours every day.
