Magic Leap 1 Augmented Reality Headset for $549.99.
That's about 75% off the original list price of $2,295.00.

Also looks like these are new, with 1-year warranty, not refurb. Clearly blowing them out, as they announced the Leap "2" back in March.

While the headset is long in the tooth it is likely the cheapest way to get into AR by a big margin. The new Leap 2 is expected to be over $2k, and the cheapest hololens is $3.5k (https://www.cnn.com/2022/03/10/te...ndex.html)

I've used it, it's fun but was never worth over 2 grand to play with.

I interviewed with them a few years ago and got to test out a headset. Back then it was astonishing tech for sure. I can say with certainty they have plenty of customers but those you'd least expect, and their organization is incredibly disorganized which has to be by design. No bueno for a consumer oriented business as first to market often wins whether or not your design is the best. However I don't think they really care about targeting the consumer but that's all I can really say.
