Really nice find! I'm assuming your computer is already bluetooth compatible?
If not, at least for me and others on the PSMoveService Google group, (Great place to ask questions and get help with troubleshooting) you have to have a bluetooth adapter to get the PSMove controllers to pair to your computer.
(I suggest this bluetooth adapter which is used by myself and others for the PSMove controllers)
(Don't forget that first time setup requires a micro USB cable for first time paring)
If so, just be aware that the Playstation Eye takes up a lot of USB bandwidth and you have to plan out where you plug in your devices very carefully for them to all track at the full 60fps.
I'd suggest downloading something like USBTreeView before starting as this will allow you to check your USB root hubs when plugging in your cameras and possibly bluetooth adapter.
Some things to keep in mind when setting this up are:
Try to isolate your cameras away from other high bandwidth devices on the same USB root hub, considering we're using an HMD with an IR camera that also takes up a lot of bandwidth so remember that too.
(This is what my USBTreeView looks like, make sure that your cameras are on USBs with the little H next to them meaning their high-speed.
("USB Composite Device - Camera" is the IR camera)
("ASUS USB-BT400" Is the bluetooth adapter)
"USB Composite Device - Audio, Camera" Is the Playstation Eye)
Most of the time the most cameras you'll be able to get away with are 2 cameras on one motherboard and the front panel USB connections included, unless you buy a PCI/PCI-E USB expansion card for more USBs and root hubs.
(PSMoveService reccomends the Inateck PCI-E to USB 3.0 5-Port
Most likely the controllers you bought were part of the older batches which were manufactured around 5-6 years ago when they first came out, so be sure to check the batteries and you can buy replacements here. (Although you have to open the controller up to access them)
Some of the newer controllers which were released with PSVR have their magnetometers disabled which are used for orientation in PSMoveService so be weary of that if their from the latest batch.
In conclusion, just follow videos like these (This and this) (You can just follow the PSMoveService portion of it) and for troubleshooting either resort to the comments of those videos, the offical Github documentation, post back here and I can try to help, or post in the Google group for help.
Aside from everything else good luck on setting it up and please excuse any grammatical errors you see in this post, it's over 3160 letters long.
You can purchase it from amazon.com. I paid $684 NZD including shipping and import fees. It actually arrived ahead of schedule as amazon is probably the best online shop in the world.
If your primary OS is GNU/Linux, I would advise not buying one though. As you simply can't do anything with it.
Yet if you go to Amazon or other serious stores, or even in any article in the media that respects the reader, you can find quotes like this one "Not a consumer ready product":

There is a reason behind everything I wrote here, so I'm not interested in dealing with inaccuracies of this sort like when he stated that the thing has been out for 2 full years? Was he counting since it was announced? Correct me if I'm wrong but it was only actually available for ordering much later in 2015? I'm really not interested in dealing with this, I just wanted to share on that upcoming update that may interest people, he should indeed try to look for fixes on his own, but I'm really not interested in adding to this conversation if I'm having to lecture people on things, I'm neither a lawyer nor I work for Sensics.
I have a USB3.0 PCI-E expansion card and my motherboard supports USB 3.0, I found that I can run two PS Move cameras off of the USB3.0 PCI-E expansion card, and two PS Move cameras off of the motherboard, but if I connect all four PS Move cameras to the same thing I have problems.
Right now I have two USB power switchers like this:

one is connected to my motherboard the other is connected to this USB3.0 PCI-E expansion card:
https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00B6ZCNGM
I also have a DK2 rift tracking camera attached to the USB3.0 PCI-E expansion card, and the bluetooth dongle connected to the motherboard.
BTW I am using the USB power switchers to make sure the cameras and bluetooth turn off.
Just to complicate matters further, I ordered mine from Amazon ;)
Check out the official psmove service video. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XiLYa1EZL04&t=340s
In the description it lists a Bluetooth dongle on amazon by Asus that works.

Try to use an updated driver from the Asus web site. Here is a link to their page to download the right driver after you choose you OS.
