Just wanted to share this along. In a response to a tweet, Lawrence Yang has confirmed that Steam Deck OLED orders would be shipped out from their warehouses within 1-3 days.
Mine has still only left the parcel centre, not updated in two days almost! This is the worst delivery service I’ve experienced
Has there been any word from valve regarding expected availability? I know it’s hard to predict, but if I don’t order within the first minute of the launch will I be SOL?
If you want the OLED right away, you better take a day off or find an excuse to get a break at 10AM PST. Otherwise you might be waiting a while.
Do y’all think it’d be best to put funds in the steam wallet as opposed to using my debit card straight?
It shouldn’t matter unless there is a concern that your bank might flag the transaction.
I’m doing that so I don’t have to confirm the purchase at my bank.
Yeah, I miss the first few minutes of the original release because of my bank, I only could buy like 20 mins in, and only made it to the second batch.
Yes. Make it easier and less time consuming. No extra steps.
Did it start shipping for anyone anywhere?
I ordered 25min after release and have not recieved shipping information.
Ordered a couple hours into launch and secured the limited edition but it’s been stuck at packaged for 2 days now
Ordered mine at 1am this morning UK, it said estimated delivery date 6-10 days, I’ll keep anything updated for the UK hopefulls so far it just says payment processed at 3:30pm so probably not going to be sent out today at all, I think my nearest centre is in the Netherlands so hopefully it’s not going to be stuck in customs
it’s been 4 days (of which 2 working days) and I’m still waiting for it to be shipped. I’m less than impressed so far. UK.
Still on packaged item also, ordered 16th 6:22 pm U.K. not impressed, my old steam deck came quicker…
The good news keeps rolling in!
Assuming they don’t sell out within the first 42 milliseconds, I might get mine next week. Woot!
