I love my LCD steam deck but I’ve been sold by all the praise about the OLED.

I live in a major Canadian city and am having a lot of trouble selling my LCD deck for a reasonable price. I’ve listed it for $400 CAD (about 300 USD) and there is no serious interest. Only lowballers.

Anyone else in the same boat?

I’m happy to keep my deck and stick by what I think it’s worth for moe, but I thought it would be a fun discussion topic.

    Sold my LCD 512gb for $350. Used almost every day since launch, Q2 Steam Deck.

    Just be patient, someone will bite. I had about 12 people try to low-ball me, all below $300, with a couple at 300- but possibly just fake offers as they wouldn’t talk much. But I still held out. All in all, within just about a week, I had a buyer for $350 and my interaction couldn’t have been smoother. Older guy who just wanted to buy his other kid a Steam Deck, because one already had one. Not sure if he was aware of the OLED though. Honestly though, a lot of people really won’t care about the OLED and will happily get an LCD for a bit cheaper. I would say that time does matter though and I would try to sell it sooner than later. In the end, I was blessed, possibly lucky, to have the guy who purchased mine and with just how polite he was. Didn’t even try to haggle me after agreeing on $350. He agreed with me that he hates when people try to lower prices after agreed amount.

    Stick with it. You’ll find someone. Just don’t short yourself.
