I leave for a trip next week Thursday. I ordered an oled on Saturday and it shipped out Monday, as expected. The estimate is 3-5 working days. The first three events clicked off like clockwork (very similar to both my and my mates LCD shipping times from a couple months ago). The next legs are when it’s hit UK and then gets delivered, but I’m not seeing any updates.

I wouldn’t be too worried if I wasn’t needing it next week, but yeah. Just curious whether other UK based purchasers are seeing similar. Not sure I want to contact support unless I reach the 6 day mark, of course at that point it’d probably be too late to reorder.

Tell me I’m panicking unnecessarily and the courier company has a lot of packages on order during the black Friday rush…

    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.

      I mean I don’t think anyone would be complaining if valve didn’t falsely advertise how long the steam decks would take to get to us. It’s been longer than the 5-7 days when I ordered it and they’re now saying on steam that it’s 3-5 days. They’re clearly not able to fulfil their promise… Also GLS are notoriously awful at keeping consistent updates, this I’m not too annoyed at myself but with everything else it gets frustrating getting left in the dark whilst others seemingly get theirs before others despite ordering later and in the same location
