While Valve acknowledges the possibility of minor cosmetic imperfections in these renewed units, it emphasizes the commitment to delivering a dependable and high-quality gaming experience at a reduced cost. The refurbished Steam Deck units will include a power supply (also refurbished), a carrying case, and a quick-start guide. However, it’s important to note that the stock of refurbished units is limited and might vary over time. Valve advises potential buyers to monitor its refurbished stock regularly in case of stock shortages.
Simultaneously, GameStop has introduced its own line of refurbished Steam Decks, which are available for purchase in select retail locations. These refurbs are priced up to 20 percent lower than new models and are exclusively accessible to customers with a GameStop Pro membership, priced at $25 annually.
