Base model is now $789, while the Steam Machine starts at $1,049. Not really much of a surprise...

There's people who bought steam decks for £350 who can sell them now used for a profit after using them for only a couple years. Who needs gold?

Selling is such a damn hassle.

I have a OLED and an LCD. I would happily sell the LCD one, but where? Craigslist is a ghostown, my principles would never let me use facebook (for marketplace) and ebay is a big cut and shipping sucks.

So here it sits, like brand new doing nothing.

Lol I'll buy it off you if you want.

Sell into to friends or coworkers?

Could do swappa - I've made a few purchases from there in the past

If you are not using it, sure. Otherwise it'd be pretty stupid.
