After the usual government ID requests were satisfied and the automated e-mails started saying "we're done here," I just googled it and found a few anecdotal cases where someone had gone the Oculus route. It worked for my daughter. She had a really tough time returning the Oculus. She's a slightly more than casual gamer, but she's also a poor grad student.
