LE deck is still available. Is it because they’re “not so limited” or because scalpers didn’t know they’d have to make a purchase on all their bot accounts in order to be eligible?

Maybe Valve got it right.

    Doesn’t limited edition mean “Buy this item for a limited period of time”?

    I feel like people have gotten used to hyper scarcity limited editions, that typically Nintendo employs, and not what a limited edition really is. Even if Valve decided to bump the delivery date up and produce more Decks, it’s still only available for a limited time.

    In addition, it kills scalpers at least in the short period…And like anything limited edition, when it’s no longer available it’ll go up in price.

      The store page for the limited edition straight up says “limited quantities”, that’s why people figured it would be a relatively small amount.
