Tried buying with paypal initially, kept saying there was an error. So decided to use card instead and now it says "It looks like you've been attempting a lot of purchases in the last few hours. Please wait a while before trying again." And it won't go through.

Meh...

Ditto stupid systems

Tried twice with Paypal and ended up with errors, switched over to CC and went through quickly 12 minutes in.

I'm getting the same message trying to use Paypal.

i tried my paypal and that diddnt work then i tried a card and was in the confirmation screen to then say my card denied payment lol, no my card diddnt deny anything else it would have said in my monzo app

Finally got a purchase receipt, not overly convinced it's worked properly but had to go through CC as forget Paypal, it wasnt having any of it.

[chrismscotland]

That was a nightmare; 512GB model pre-ordered; we’ll see if I get one or not!

You can check your purchase history in Steam - mine says 'Steam Deck 256GB Deposit'

 

[McBain]

"Your Steam Deck 512 GB Deposit is now reserved. Once inventory is available, you will receive an email in the order your reservation was made. This email will contain details for how to complete your purchase"

Good luck to us 24 minutes in

Think i've got one... shows as pending in my transaction history... checked and payment taken on CC too.

 

[jrodga2k5]

I wonder how long we actually need to wait in the end to see if we're successful? Apparently if not the money will go to your Steam Wallet.

Should be good then, happened to me and was simply awaiting Steam taking the cash.

Just got my confirmation email, so for me around 10 mins

 

[nitram100]

I pre ordered the top model. Took about 3 minutes for the transaction to go through!

 

[jonneymendoza]

Half that for me

I usually have some steam credits from selling useless digital tat like cards you get from games and also when I can find discounted gift cards
