TL;DR: Steam briefly showed options to buy refurbished Steam Decks for the following prices:

  • 64gb - $319
  • 256gb - $419
  • 512gb - $519

The steam page has since been taken down, but will hopefully go live officially soon.

Edit: That was quick, refurbished units available now.

After cracking open my own Deck, replacing the SSD or Thumb sticks is dirt simple. There are even drop in Hall effect sticks you can get. The only real trouble is if you need to replace the battery. The screen and battery are definitely the hardest things to replace in the Steam Deck.

PS: REMOVE THE MICROSD FIRST! I’ve seen people forget their card is in there and literally snap it in half when opening up their Steam Deck.
