Steam deck payment plan?

[LettersFrom]

For anyone that's reserved their steam deck, i was wonder if you can pay as much or as little until the release date, sort of like a layaway system, or is it just the $5 to reserve and its paid full up front once its released? The reason I asked is because I was think about getting one later on but paying the full amount all at once is a little much for me, like i wouldn't mind paying half one month and the rest on the next month kind of thing.

And if you don't pay it off in 2 months, are you charged interest?

So, it's just a credit card with a gimmick of roping in people that should not be buying things on credit.

Why is that even relevant? This is not a discussion over the merits of different ways in which to pay for something. The point is it answers the op’s question of providing another possible method in which to split up the payments when buying the steam deck without having to resort to credit cards and possibly getting ♥♥♥♥♥♥ by interest.

Then why did you brought up Klarna as a means for the OP to finance a Steam deck?

Lol Did you miss the part that says “the point is it answers the original posters question of providing another possible method in which to split up payments for the steam deck” that right there is the answer if you didn’t get a clue in yet.

Why are you taking it personally? Klarna being just another credit card that has nothing to do with you.

As for the OP, his best option is to start saving up now.

Personal? You stated something, I disagreed and stated my own view on it. That’s nothing personal, it’s what happens on forums lol.

. . . . disagree? But Klarna is a credit card. That is 100% factual.

It's also a scummy business that preys on people that can't qualify for a normal credit card.

Businesses are in it to make money. Klarna knows that these people that are using their card will most likely fail to make payments. They are betting on it.

Lol bro I disagreed by stating that it works a little different than credit cards and give you a bit more leeway. That’s it.

Why are you still arguing the “moral” merits of it? Lol

You’re embarrassing us. The people reading must be cracking up at this back and forth.

Not at all the same. Credit cards have interest if you don’t pay within the allotted time, and many of them don’t give you almost 2 months to pay it off.

Still a credit system and governed as such.

This practice isn't that new to be fair. How they work is by preying on the fact that most people will not pay that back timely but will in fact go over, and that's where they hit you for substantial interest (usually).

It is a far better premise to just go to a bank and get a loan (but do NOT get the item itself on hire purchase as they will charge more). If you're under age, then if they're offering that, in most places that is illegal.

Like the previous poster you’re arguing the merits of it while disregarding the point. OP asked for a way in which to perhaps pay the Steam Deck on installments which is why I brought it up.

I find hilarious that you’re suggesting a bank loan for the Steam Deck as an alternative but it has no purpose here. It is after all another alternative true lol.

No I'm not at all.

Please demonstrate where I disagrred with you or professed ANY statement where it was right or wrong in that regard?

I merely advise here, just as you did.

Those sort of credit payments are a valid way of getting one, indeed, but I merely explained the usual problems.

[Yzal]

Valve's payment plan is you pay everything in one go.

Then op can simply get a credit card or put away money until it's release. Credit card will hold op accountable for payment. If they don't pay, they receive punishment. It would be awfully convenient for valve to implement a payment plan for people who plan to not make payments. Would be rather difficult and expensive for valve to retrieve them for lack of payment.

Lol What are you even discussing here? Nowhere in what you quoted were we discussing Valve implementing payment plans at all.

Only the first sentence really applies to you, the rest is regarding the topic itself of payment plans.

Read what the OP wrote please. That was the whole point of this thread.

[wuddih]

btt

there was no payment plan, there is no payment plan, there will be no payment plan.
figure out your own payment plan, you have more than 3 months time to do that.
