Mine came due. Bought and it's likely going on eBay for whatever they're worth.
Mine arrives on Thursday. If I could still get $1000+ like folks did with the first batch, I'd sell mine too, but I'm no longer interested in gaming at my desk, so Im probably gonna sell my desktop rig instead.

Got mine today. I've downloaded and installed 13 games. It has crashed and rebooted 5-6 times in fewer hours of use. The hardware is very nice, and it feels good in the hands, but if the game isn't listed as verified, you are lucky to get past the game's start menu. It's like using a pre-honeycomb Android Tablet. It's got tons of potential, but it's still a hot mess. I'm going to wait until after the weekend before I truly judge it. Right now, I believe many youtubers are understating the poor game compatibility

#Update#
My unit has been crashing like crazy. Any game that was incompatible would lock up the entire device. It even occurred with at least 4 Verified games. A few times, I would hear the unit reboot just sitting there downloading games. So I contacted Valve for an RMA. When it works it's a game changing device. So I definitely want a replacement and not a refund.

Got this in now I gotta figure out the best way to unload it. Probably doing eBay because locally somebody has a 512MB listed for just under $1000 on Facebook Marketplace so there's no point.

Some of these fools taking Cash App and Zenmo for that. No way in hell would I take a payment system linked to a credit card for a purchase like that with no shipping / seller's protection.

I too would go the Ebay route, but you have to realize Ebay will take over 10% of the transaction price. Seems like the ones that are labelled as 'New/Sealed' sell for more than ones that have been played with. Personally, I'd rather buy one that has been tested out. My comment above explains why I feel that way. As usual, if you have high feedback number you can charge more than folk with little to no feedback. Godspeed.
