I made this guide because the selection for bags that actually fit the HTC Vive well are either poorly constructed, overpriced, or both. The only case actually intended for the Vive I could find was this overpriced monstrocity, and this, even more overpriced, even larger monstrocity. So I did some digging, tried out a few things, and made this guide.

: $22
Another accessory I didn't include in the guide because it isn't Vive-specific was this Case Logic case for $15. It's intended for Go Pro cameras, but I found that it fits a Logitech G502 Proteus Spectrum gaming mouse and a wireless XBox 360 controller perfectly, with room for a spare USB cable and a couple of thumb drives. I keep this second Case Logic case next to the other Case Logic bag in the guide, inside my Everki Titan backpack, which helps to provide a little extra padding for those exposed Vive controllers.
Maybe you have a point, however, an Vive + accessories are a lot less cumbersome to kart around, I know this because everywhere my Vive goes, my PC goes.
Maybe it wasn't built to be transported around, but I know for a fact (just in this thread alone) that quite a few people take their VR setups to conventions, friends places, warehouses, etc. So it's maybe not as uncommon as you think.
There are even a bunch of 3rd-party carry cases available. If they are for sale, it means there's a demand for it.
