Hey folks,

I have a question. I plan to travel to the US shortly and want to order a deck OLED which I can collect from there, because sadly my region doesn’t have steam deck being sold officially. Since my steam account isn’t US based, I’ll be creating a new one with a US payment method (friend’s) to order one. Should I expect any issues using a new account? Or it would be smooth sailing?

And no, I’m not looking to get the limited edition one. I know that has strict requirements.

    You may have the order initially refused and be account banned, and be required to provide photo ID to support in order to unban it. I’ve read on this sub that this can happen to completely new accounts trying to buy the Deck

    Otherwise, no, you shouldn’t have issues, provided you create the account from a US IP address and use a US payment card
