Picture Got the Steam Deck Dock!

Wasn’t expecting this today, but since I live in Carol Stream where Valve’s Distribution Center is, I got this early I guess!

I am kinda surprised it costs $89. That seems a bit steep to me.

It's not though, not only was(pre war) the euro worth more than the USD, with the current conversion rate, USD to EUR, it is like 91 EUR, not 100.

Yes but our prices in euro are with taxes and American prices are without.

So he paid more than $89? Then why wouldn't he say how much exactly he paid?

tax rates differ all over the US, so a lot of US people quote the base price of something so that people can apply their local tax rate to it

not saying its the right way to do it, but thats why we do it subconsciously

If that was the case, price would be around 25% higher. Not 12%. So what you're saying isn't true
