If you spam the Payment Method screen, you'll end up getting this:

It looks like you've been attempting a lot of purchases in the last few hours. Please wait a while before trying again.

Trying on my second Steam account...slowly.

given this disaster, I wonder how many of the limited edition got snatched up by scalpers since they probably had a slightly easier time using bots…

Holy shit don’t give up at the “it looks like you’ve been trying to make a lot of purchases…” screen. I just kept trying and then my order for the 1TB went through.

Thanks, Gabe.
I can't believe this "a lot of purchases" thing smh

Me too which is bullshit because by the time it expires they will be gone.

If the website worked correctly then I wouldn't have gotten it in the first place.

lol
Heads up, I had this message and gave it a rest for a couple min and tried again, it went through.

Got my 512 GB version after much battling with the queue thank fuck.

Was shitting it I'd get locked out of purchase like the original launch purchase shitshow which delayed me getting my original Deck for almost 6 months...

Alternatively making a new account took me a minute and I was able to purchase first try.
Oh that’s good to hear! Which version did you get? There was a message on the store earlier that said only accounts that made a purchase before November would be eligible (maybe that was just for the LE)

What time is it?
I got the "you've been making a lot of purchase attempts in last few hours" message and just kept clicking away, it cleared about a min ago and I got my order in via CC. This was for the LE.

You'll need to click through the "item is out of stock" message too. Let's see if the orders hold up.

Is that because it’s more intuitive or because you are used to windows?

I find Windows to be a massive POS compared to MacOS and part of the reason I use Mac/iOS.

I would love to never have to touch Windows ever again so the more of a bite Steam can take out of it the better.
Well MacOS is famous for being extremely intuitive and easy to use. This is why Apple is soon to take over the world. But yes, I was raised on Windows and have come to learn all its user aspects.

Yeah, I finally got mine to go through as well. I figured I'd refresh one last time.

What is hilarious and sad is now that I went through all that hassle I'm asking myself what I even want to play on it.
First thing for me will be my second run through Star Ocean Second Story R
