    Nah 350€ is really good value for that hardware, but only tinkerers would buy it because mainboards in the steamdeck almost never break i would assume. I think the issue is more that valve wouldnt get any ROI from selling a mainboard without steamOS on it because it might not be used for gaming.

      Yeah, it doesn’t make any sense for repairs when you can buy a new 256GB for just $50.

      The stock comes and goes, but you can also buy the 64GB refurbished model for $279 as well.
