Use a gift card instead of your credit card to get your order in faster. People who preordered the first version got through quicker because steam could process the transactions while credit card users were stuck waiting.

It broke before I could confirm payment details. It breaks on the shipping details window for me!

aaand they are out of stock.

Yep, had to update my CC info, took too long once I got past the shipping address roadblock, was out of stock by the time I had entered the info… Don’t let me add the item to my cart if you don’t reserve it for me, fucking hell!

I kept trying and it did restock a few times. Got one.
ekZepp@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Recheck!!!

Try again, I was able to order the LE just a few minutes ago

The first 20 minutes I got transaction errors from the order, then it went through, I got charged and… a transaction error. Made my second order without PayPal, paid the second time and a 1TB model is coming for Christmas. The second payment was returned a few hours later.

Go forth. May it give the rest of us a sale for Christmas.

Amazingly, Valve actually fought off the scalpers. At least in the US. 6 hours later and everything seems to still be in stock, including the LE. It’s still a rough ride ordering though, with 502 errors constantly.
PlasticExistence@lemmy.world 9 months ago
Agreed, I am also amazed. I managed to get a LE model after almost two hours. They refunded the 512GB model quickly too.

I was able to order the LE about 5 minutes ago successfully. Fucking stoked, figured I’d never get one
jayandp@sh.itjust.works 9 months ago
Same. I was prepared to hold off on getting an OLED if I couldn’t grab an LE, but after 45 minutes of hell I finally managed to get my order in.

Best of luck to everyone that wanted one! Especially the limited edition one. I’ll be waiting for a steam deck 2 or something. Already got the top LCD model w/ hall effect joysticks and dbrands’ Clone of the Kingdom on mine.
