Kind of weird everyone was pushing for the limited edition when it's currently still in stock 4 days after release.
Good on valve for crushing scalpers dreams.

You'd have to like the aesthetic to really want that version I think. Not sure if it was visually everyone's cup of thirty-extra-dollars tea.
I believe that they sold out and decided to restock. I've seen it say sold out on multiple occasions.
I thought it would be a pipe dream to get one. I adore the color accents and clear shell. I didn’t even try to buy one at 10am because I assumed it would be gone. Ended up trying many hours later in the day just for shits and it worked. I’m beyond excited. Thank you Valve for restocking them and not creating some god awful Uber rare thing that scalpers would exploit like Nintendo does. Amazing
I placed my order about 20 min after they went on sale and mine is still in “Shipped” status on Steam but when I look at the UPS tracking it says “Label Created”. 1TB LE
Edit: it’s shipping to Illinois
Edit2: just changed to being delivered tomorrow! (on mon 11/20)
Edit3: was just delivered 😎(on tues 11/21)
Mine just updated about an hour ago, so yours should be soon, if not by now.
Tracking for my LE was like that all weekend, but it updated with details last night. It was actually picked up Friday for delivery tomorrow, so something might be wonky with UPS tracking.
If it matters, mine is headed to Pennsylvania. It was shipped from Illinois. Ordered at 11:57am PST according to the confirmation email. You ordered quite a bit before I did, so hopefully yours is on the way too.
I live in Illinois so it’s kinda weird they haven’t shipped mine yet. I’m refreshing the page at least once an hour though 😅
Exactly the same for my LE OLED order that I got in @ 29 minutes.
Edit: Dunno if there are multiple warehouses, but mine is for shipping to Minneapolis, tracking doesn't say where it's coming from yet.
Interesting. I’m shipping to Illinois so not too far from you.
Mine nows says it was picked up about an hour ago and should be here Weds. Coming from Addison, IL.
Update: Delivered! Now just to "patiently" wait for it to warm up before I can turn it on...........
Order LE ~2 hours after it went live, shipped out Friday and scheduled for delivery tomorrow. I'm shocked, but pleased.
Mine shows as shipped on UPS, supposed to get to me on Wednesday
Limited Edition here.
LE, order placed 10:19 Pacific. Not shipped yet, but packaged. Guess the Canada shipping backlog is real -- hopefully it comes this week.
Ordered the 512 model a few hours after launch. Will be delivered tomorrow in the Netherlands 🎉
edit: Delayed by a day so Thursday :/
edit 2: Delivered! It's awesome.
I managed to get my order in 36mins after launch (512GB), it has arrived today.
Ordered 2 hours after release. Says shipped via UPS from CA on Friday but no update since then.
I ordered the Limited Edition as soon as I could get past the store errors, and it's out for delivery right now! Unfortunately I'm out and about, but look forward to playing it soon.
Ordered within 20 minutes, still at "packaged".
Ordered on the day after (got an out of stock on day one) and my order is showing packaged ATM.
I ordered the LE many hours after launch and it is shipping now. Will be here by November 27th! So stoked
512 OLED ordered roughly an hour after it became available online in the EU. "Out for delivery" as of noon today, (Netherlands don't mess around) but it's nearly 7pm now and I'm wondering if the DHL delivery man is actually going to bother showing up today.
512 OLED ordered 22 mins after launch in Canada, it was shipped (still label created when tracking with FedEx) about an hour ago now.
Ordered 20 minutes after release. Tracking label was generated today, so I am assuming it will be shipped today.
Ordered ~30 min after release, 512 Oled. Just delivered!
Still not available in my country
G'day
relatable
512GB model ordered ~25 minutes in. Currently shipping, but UPS status is just "Label Created" at the moment.
Ordered on launch day, 20 minutes in. It went on preparing order status after half an hour and it has remained like that until a couple of hours ago when it went into order delivered status and now I’ve got the tracking number.
Ordered LE ~20 minutes after launch. Currently stuck on "Packaged items", and refreshing way too often to see the same message...
Our distributor has hit a processing backlog for orders to Canada. We are actively working through the issue and will ship your order as soon as we can. You will receive an email with tracking information once your order ships
I'm hoping this backlog won't be too long. 🥲
I'm getting the same message. Fingers crossed its not a very long wait!
I tried to order the LE at launch but it kept telling me “sold out” or “not available in your country” (though I’m in L.A.). I did eventually manage to order a couple hours later.
Currently, my order says “Shipping soon”.
LE, "packaged items".
In cart at 10:00:03a checked out 11:26a after an hour and a half of issues, out of stocks, and other miscellaneous errors
Shipping notification 11/21 @ 12:41am - label created! Someone working late??
LE. Got it in my cart right away but ran into issues and got to finish the order about 45 minutes later. Shipped and scheduled to be delivered tomorrow!
Just checked UPS status after reading others' posts here, and sure enough mine is slated to arrive Wednesday by end of day! 1 TB non-LE
Ordered on opening day and shows in transit to my address.
UK, 512gb ordered 20mins after launch been stuck on packaged since Saturday. Just got a tracking number this morning but not active yet and coming from Netherlands so expect it to take a few days yet.
Ordered Sunday evening, and it updated early today to "Packaged Items".
Packaged, not shipped yet. LE ordered around 30 minutes after they were available.
I tried to place my order a couple minutes after it went live but wasn’t able to successfully place it until several hours later. Tracking info says it should arrive tomorrow.
Ours got shipped yesterday at night I think. It says it will arrive tomorrow. We ordered 20ish minutes after the launch in Canada. LE.
