Hey y'all, I'm just starting to dip my toes into learning more about the Steam Deck and was wondering how likely it is that we'll see refurbished OLED decks for sale by Valve around Black Friday?

If unlikely, what do you recommend as the best way to find a good deal on a used OLED for the holidays?

Thanks in advance!

EDIT: To clarify, I'm only interested in the OLED version, despite the crazy good deals on a refurb LCD model!

I think there's a good chance that we'll see an official sale on Steam Decks for black friday. If you're wanting a good deal on one, I would consider looking at the discontinued LCD models during the next sale.

Yeah, those prices on the refurb LCDs was insane, but I wasn't ready at the time to pull the trigger and now the only refurb LCD available is the 512GB.

You can easily upgrade the internal storage. I bought a 512GB OLED and exchanged the storage to 2Tb.
