I leave for a trip next week Thursday. I ordered an oled on Saturday and it shipped out Monday, as expected. The estimate is 3-5 working days. The first three events clicked off like clockwork (very similar to both my and my mates LCD shipping times from a couple months ago). The next legs are when it’s hit UK and then gets delivered, but I’m not seeing any updates.

I wouldn’t be too worried if I wasn’t needing it next week, but yeah. Just curious whether other UK based purchasers are seeing similar. Not sure I want to contact support unless I reach the 6 day mark, of course at that point it’d probably be too late to reorder.

Tell me I’m panicking unnecessarily and the courier company has a lot of packages on order during the black Friday rush…

    Ordered mine(512gb Oled model) late Sunday night(26th) and it has just arrived now(Midday Thursday 30th). So 4 business days in the end. Seems GLS have shit the bed at some point for a lot of people. They went dark on my notifications for a day and a half/two days, but I kind of expected that as it was coming from overseas. Really hope all you guys still waiting get some good news soon.

    Ordered mine half an hour after launch and I’m still waiting. I think It’s got something to do with Parcel Force. If you check the tracking page and scroll a little lower they give Service issues information. Apparently people are ringing in sick alot and they’re experiencing other issues. It may have something to do with why there’s been nothing information wise coming from the UK. Fucking shit

    6 to 10 days projected, got it on the 6th day. I’m from the Netherlands. GLS tracking is shit though, they updated the delivery time to a new date whilst the driver was apparently already en route. Had many issues with gls in the past.

    Ordered on launch date, stuck on “The parcel is on its way to the final parcel center.” At this point i think i will just ask for a refund and order it again as i may get it faster. Dogshit delivery

    You whinging lot know it’s getting close to Christmas in addition to recent black Friday sales, so couriers are getting smashed.

    As the original steam deck owners who went through the reordering process, calm the hell down. It’s coming a lot sooner than what they had to wait.

    i orded mine on the 14th this month although it was a 512gb lcd version got it the 18th so most likely either a mix of sale and the fact the oled just kinda came out
