Re: Replacement motion trackers

Erm, no you don't, at least not in the UK. You can buy them direct from the official Vive web site individually (obviously you could buy two if you wanted, but the default amount is 1, I just checked).
They are also available from other retailers, such as Scan, Very etc. Again as single units, not pairs.
A single controller is £119.99 direct from Vive, so whilst not cheap, is about ~1 fifth of the price of buying a full Vive kit (£499). And even then, if you were buying two controllers, that's still less than half the price of buying a new full kit.
