I bought a 256GB refurbished Steam Deck 1 month ago. Now the same model, new, costs less then what I paid for the refurbished one.
This way Valve won’t let us sell our current Steam Deck for a good price.
And I would really like the new Steam Deck OLED, of course. It’s just better and, Valve knows, it brings what everyone didn’t like about the original Steam Deck. A better screen quality, better battery life, better WiFi.
YouTubers etc tested the device for a week before the announcement. They knew it. And of course a new device takes time to be developed.
What I mean is that they could have let us know about the new release a lot earlier instead of just a week earlier. I would have waited and I’m sure many other people too.
That’s a bad behavior and we have to do something.
Valve can’t disappoint us like this.
They should at least propose a trade in program.
I’m so frustrated tbh I never thought I’d afford one I got some money back I was owed from disability and thought ah I’ll get something I wouldn’t be able to afford normally then 6 days after the return period they dropped this and it’s £180 less. That’s a LOT of money and I’m ready to never use steam again. I messaged and got no help I really do not think we should just accept this it feels so wrong? That might not be much money for them but to most people it’s a lot.
