Refurbished Steam decks

[Quigon Genesis]

Ok so looking to get a refurbished lcd model because they are a lot cheaper then the new models, but they are never in stocks. So I was wondering how often they restock these and are there any disadvantages to buying a refurbished deck from GameStop?

Other than,

Are these the same refurbished Steam Deck units GameStop is selling?

No, GameStop's refurbished Steam Decks have been refurbished in their own facilities, and they will come with a different warranty provided by GameStop.

...not much difference.

But being able to go to a physical location and see/feel what you will get and talk to a person right there is better for some people.

Well I think your right but there's a slight issue with that. There's not a gamestop with one in stocks within 100 mines from where I live.
