Steam Deck OLED out of stock in U.S., with fears that memory shortage will prompt price increase

Buyers who were procrastinating about purchasing a Valve gaming handheld are feeling regretful. The Steam Deck OLED has disappeared from the U.S. storefront, with stock levels sporadic elsewhere. Facing component shortages, the manufacturer may be considering a price increase.

    Time to sell mine! Where can I do that? And if you say Facebook marketplace, that is absolutely a no go.

        Thanks for that! I thought they had gone out of business but ok.

        Your comment kinda sounds like an accusation. If they don’t jack up the price, it’s not profiteering. Hell, even if they sell at the price they paid, it still doesn’t meet the definition.

        But, I agree with the sentiment. Scalpers should be drawn and quartered, at minimum!

        That’s not what profiteering means

        I have two. I am reluctant to sell the one I never use because selling things is barely worth the hassle. If I made back what I paid I would be happy. If the market is worth it now, I really can’t control or be held responsible for what caused it.

      eBay, but there’s fees of course.

      Or find a hardware swap thread

        I sell things on ebay, but I am always reluctant to sell electronics there. Seems like it could bite me in the ass and shipping would be pretty rough.
