I really wanted one, but now it's an easy wait for at least some kind of sale.

Edited to add, just finished reading and watching a round of reviews and honestly don't think I even want one anymore.

    I don't think they've ever had any sales for hardware. The only discounted hardware I've seen was the refurbished Deck. If you don't want specifically Valve-branded hardware, you're probably better off building a proper PC from comparable second-hand parts.

    They have absolutely had sales on their hardware. I am pretty sure they've put deck on sale every year since it came out.

    As for building my own, yeah I know, and I've considered it many times. But I absolutely dread working in small form factor, and this thing's size was one of the main appeals for me.

    They've definitely had new steam decks on sale before. Mine was 20% off just last year.
