> parts shortage causing delays, while the vive seems to ship

I tried adding a Vive to cart and they gave me a June shipping date, same as my Oculus preorder.

Current estimated ship date for a new Vive order is "around June". Current estimated ship date for a new Oculus Rift orders is August.

So youre comparing placing a vive order on April 14th to making a pre-order months ago for a Rift?

Ordering a Rift today means an August ship date. These two situations aren't remotely comparable.
