Valve is now selling refurbished Steam Deck consoles that are cheaper than new ones but have the same quality, minus a few minor cosmetic blemishes
The refurbished units go through a rigorous testing process that is the same as for new units. They are factory reset, updated with the latest software, and tested over 100 times. Valve claims that the refurbished units meet or even exceed the performance standards of new retail units.
The refurbished units come with a full one-year warranty, a refurbished charger, a carrying case, and a quick start guide. They are priced at $319 for the 64GB model, $419 for the 256GB model, and $519 for the 512GB model. This is $80, $110, and $130 cheaper than new retail units, respectively.
The refurbished units are a great way to save money on a Steam Deck without sacrificing quality. They are also backed by a full warranty, so you can be confident in your purchase.
The refurbished units are available in limited quantities from Valve’s website and GameStop stores for GameStop Pro subscribers
