Oculus Rift was 300$ for its Dev Kit.
Its alot cheaper, and safer (bigger market, lots of VR headsets starting selling) to develop for VR than AR like hololens.
(I ll bet my right nut its a hundred times easier to code, for VR than AR too, since you basically just have a normal game, and set camra ingame to be the headmovement) (so its easy to make 1 game, that works both normally on a console, and also for VR, the same isnt true for AR)
I know for big devs, 3000$ is probably pocket change, but for small indies... that price could hurt the amount of developement it gets.
