This thread details the clause specifically that discusses transfer. I’m not positive if the 1 year hardware warranty is included, it doesn’t seem to be based on the language others pointed out.
No, yeah, the opening of the device is more so a “did they replace/damage anything” and less of a warranty problem. Second hand sale is what stopped warranty
Warranty is not transferable. You’ll want to check along the edges for any tool marks. If it’s been opened and had anything replaced, unless they’re better than 99% of the DIY steam deck crowd, they left small traces of getting past the backplate.
Watch a video or two on how to replace the SSD, and go looking for marks around the areas people said are easier to slide things into to pry the plate off. If you want to open it yourself, you can also check the screws for any marks as well as ensure there’s no glaring issues with the internals in case they tried to replace the joysticks or something. Valve was pretty clean with mine, every screw pretty much pristine.
I dont know man. New steam deck 64gb goes for 300 new, top 512gb ssd not for more than a hundred or so on the higher end, and an SD card in that size ranges from $40-90.
Are they paying you for labor in having swapped the SSD on a new steamdeck? Because I wouldn’t buy used, gently used or not, for roughly the same price as new.
Mine arrives in the mail today. It does not come with a dock.
I only tip if someone had to do something to get me that food/experience. Picking up food to take home? No tip. The restaurant makes you get your own food from the counter and do your own refills? No tip. The checkout screen might have a tip, but I’m putting 0.
It’s not really your personal responsibility, it’s the restaurant owners responsibility. If people aren’t getting enough tips in a restaurant where tips are the big draw, and that causes wait staff to quit, the restaurant owner should be paying his people to subsidize that.
15-20% also is not a hard rule. There’s a lot of places where I live that try to pass off costlier food in shitty atmosphere (think 30 dollar entrees, but the server sees you twice and it’s a “theme” restaurant). If I think someone did well and engaged with us as customers and were pretty good about making suggestions on the menu or being extra attentive to drink refills, then guaranteed they’re getting within that 15-20%. Anything less than that, then I as the customer who only gets to make that judgement call off of the limited interaction we have, and you’ll get 7-10% or 5 bucks, whichever is bigger.
