Because the verge wasn’t stupid enough to buy into that insanity. The Verge.
Tech reporting is difficult in the gadget sphere - but in reporting chances are you know someone who has it. Network a bit. Borrow it and do a full review after you publish a piece that maybe discusses the product beforehand so you don’t miss the initial clicks. Or better still - maybe publish a piece on why you didn’t think it prudent to finance 4k for a product that the manufacturer doesn’t know what to do with.
Honestly I don’t know. Based on reviews I know that at least part of the product is ‘sized’ for your face. I know they say scanned but realistically it’s a base measurement of your eyes and maybe a few values to pick one of the premade face gaskets. I wouldn’t put it past apple to hit you 20% restock less the ‘custom’ parts. So 6-700 bucks to write a review?
Being a tech reporter is one of the small areas I understand someone buying one of these, but why on earth isn’t the verge paying that for him?

Wasn’t there a return window? I’d imagine that’d be enough to do a review
