    Steam decks audience isnt conducive to scalping. Little timmys mom would pay for a scalped Switch. But a handheld pc is a niche market i dont even think scalpers are in on yet. They certainly arent in VR, which is another niche market.

    I still don’t care if it available or not. I was able to get my hands on one and honestly, I think Valve is doing a great job with that. The fact that you couldn’t get a regular PS5 from sony after 3 year after release, that to me is ridiculous…

    Not hating. Snagged mine about an hour ago. There are no issues in checkout. I’m happy. I’ll be saying goodbye to the asus rog ally. Gotta return that by 12/1.

      Valve surely understands how much people like skins and customization. I’m hoping by the time SD2 comes out, they’ll figure out how to just fully customize your own colorway when you order.

    I’m trying to see if I can change my order. I got the standard one after being unable to check out with the limited edition one getting message that order could not be completed because an item in my cart was out of stock. Steam themselves told me it was no longer available, but their website still gave the “buy now” option with a 2-4 week delivery window. Then this morning it still showed as available with a 1-2week delivery window. Yet valve says it’s out of stock and people here have been able to still order it.

    Seems like everyone that would want one can get one, honestly dont mind that. Down the road they’ll become a little more rare

    Scalpers be like, should I buy just one more? 2 days later, ok ok last one. Valve: removes the limited edition flag. Scalpers: fuck.
