I’m asking because I have a friend who is willing to sell me his 64gb steam deck for 250. but it has a cracked screen and some dents/chips. Am I crazy to think there’s a sale coming or should I jump on this deal?

    Regardless, you shouldn’t buy it. It’s not worth $250 with a cracked screen. You can get a brand new one now for $350, and a screen replacement will basically get you there. Besides, you’d then have to actually do the screen replacement, which is a fiddly pain in the arse with lots of room for you to mess up the Deck entirely.

    Bad deal for that model even if it was perfect condition as you can find for around that price or less fully functional
