    $80-130 USD off depending on storage capacity. Absolutely worth it and I’m glad they’re doing this!

    This is the best summary I could come up with:


    Valve now sells “certified refurbished” Steam Decks that cost less than if you bought the handheld gaming PC brand new.

    As revealed in listings that appeared ahead of the official launch, the refurbished units offer some nice savings over the prices of new ones:

    Valve cautions that “supplies are limited” and that it expects them to “come in and out of stock as available,” so depending on when you check the page, they may not actually be available to purchase.

    “Each Certified Refurbished Steam Deck has been thoroughly tested to the same high standards as our retail units,” Valve says.

    “Every device goes through a complete factory reset, software update, and an extensive examination involving over 100 tests at one of Valve’s facilities.

    Valve also announced that GameStop will start selling refurbished Steam Decks in “select stores” beginning Tuesday.
