Man that's rougher than I expected. 0/3, either we got really unlucky or supply vs. demand is way out of whack :(

Edit: Here's a website that's giving some rough estimates! https://steamframeout.com/

Edit 2: And this one: https://steamhardware.io/tracker/steam-frame/

Email from Valve: You are on the waitlist for Steam Frame 256GB Kit. When we did the one-time randomization of the list, your place in line ended up beyond the number of Steam Frames currently available for reservation. As we work our way through the reservation queue, some customers may cancel their reservations. If that happens, you may be moved into the reservation queue, and you'll be notified via email that you have a reservation after all.

Yeah the wait-list email is very clear that you will be waiting. The reservation email didn't explain things very clearly, so when I got it, I wasn't immediately excited. I was worried I was misreading it, so I went to steam but their verbage has been removed from the page. So I ended up having to Google around to confirm that I should be excited.

    Same here, but after I saw some of the email screenshots here showing what the waitlist message looked like, then I realized I had been lucky.
