Naw. Mine is fine.

You whinging lot know it’s getting close to Christmas in addition to recent black Friday sales, so couriers are getting smashed.

As the original steam deck owners who went through the reordering process, calm the hell down. It’s coming a lot sooner than what they had to wait.

Thankfully, no problems on my LE. No dead pixels either - so, so thankful

1TB Model is great

• Cost increase = same as 1TB SSD from Corsair/Sabrent without installing it yourself
• Anti-glare screen is great. Can use it inside/outside no problems. If you want to use a screen protector on top, you can, keep it anti-glare. Diminishes the viewing quality slightly, but still great.

What you’re paying for ultimately is the SSD + Installation costs + built in anti-glare feature. You can’t feel the ‘etched’ screen whatsover, it’s part of the manufacturing process with laser that permits the anti-glare viewing.

Premium Steam Deck Vent smell

Augh. FedEx was meant to deliver my package. Claimed they ‘attempted delivery’ but then walked away and place a tag instead…

Literally watched them from my window =="

Going to try and pick up the package at the FedEx Depot now =="

Out for delivery. Should arrive shortly in the next few hours :)

Tracking No. 2 days ago.

Packaged Items 2 days ago.

Arriving tomorrow around the evening at the latest :)

Then… Wouldn’t you be better off playing the emulated games on your pc?

Need to think about RMA for valve.

It’d be a pain outside North America.

Also, other countries, different warranty laws.

It’s a calculated risk. Normal steam deck oled, I suppose they have good enough systems in place

Limited edition, people on ebay now… Unless they restock.

After that, you probably need an international shipping service that can make it happen. You’d still need to do your diligence to protect yourself with the purchase.

You’ll likely need to pay at least 20% above market value to make it worthwhile for the international shipper to sell.

Unfortunately, the companies I know that would do these things no longer operate, so you’ll need to search reddit or google

There was one for 2700 on the Canadian Market.

As someone else said, that’s like a 4090…

I think it’s fine to sell one unit overseas, but if you do, don’t be crazy. I think a 20-30% mark up is reasonable, especially if it’s an LE to say the UK or Australia where it’s hard to get them.

Don’t think steam decks are even available to Australia outside of the Grey markets x x.

10% goes to eBay in taxes.

I reckon international shipping would be customs cost (tax) + about 70-80$

I think everyone that grew up through the 90’s would want the limited edition Steam Deck due to the nostalgia factor of the old transparent Gameboy Pocket & Gameboy Color editions.

Moddable:

• Transparent shell is about $35
• 1TB NVME SSD upgrade is $100 (lower if you can find the ATL)

Important Notes:

• Shell Replacement has been reported to take approximately 4 hours
• NVME SSD Replacement is approximately 15 minutes

Not Moddable:

• New OLED Screen
• Upgraded Fan
• 60hz-90 Hz screen
• Change in APU
• Change in Bluetooth/Wifi Radio
• Change in Battery

Cost:

• Steam Deck OLED 512 GB: $549.00
• Steam Deck OLED 1TB: $649.00 ($100.00 Upgrade to 1 TB Capacity)
• Steam Deck OLED 1TB (LE): $679.00 ($130.00 Upgrade to 1 TB Capacity & Transparent Shell)

Analysis:

• Steam Deck OLED Limited Edition:
  • Great value if you want the transparent shell and don’t want to commit 4 hours of your life to installing it
• Steam Deck OLED 1 TB Edition:
  • Good value if you need 1 TB storage (Fair price upgrade for what you’re paying)
• Steam Deck OLED 512 GB Edition:
  • Great value if you only need 512GB OR Are looking to upgrade to 2TB NVME storage anyways.

Makes me want to buy a few units, come to Australia, and sell them XD. But I suppose ebay would do the same
