    No. They already said it was a Limited Edition for a reason. Once it fully sells out it’s gone. And it’s sold out since I think either yesterday or this morning. You had 10 days my guy. Unless you can find someone selling theirs for retail ( doubtful) you’re out of luck.

    valve staying true to their word, using “limited” edition and not “collectors” edition and actually having a true qty cap. they also did really well with preventing a good amount of bots and scalpers.

    i also found it cute seeing so many posts before with people saying “oh its just a different shell and some color, they can just run it again if they wanted to.” i want to hear from valve how many they actually made.

    The bad news is if Valve wasn’t lying about this edition being strictly limited, then they are gone for good.

    The good news is that Valve used this as a test to gauge consumer interest and economics of such models. As it sold out, this increases the chances that Valve will offer more case variants in the future.

    Hopefully they will continue LE releases in the future, like they said they might. I’d love an translucent orange deck with black accents.

    Eh, don’t stress it too much. Get a regular one (with the better OLED screen) and a Dbrand screen. Limited edition stuff is honestly annoying for reasons like this.

    You can also try and find a reputable scalper and purchase from them if you need the shell.
