[–] Vqhm@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago (1 child) Kogan provides a year warranty tho... so it's not exactly a grey import (like fly by night eBay seller) I think you might have to cover shipping for repairs tho if you don't have their extended warranty. I think they have to provide that warranty by law tho permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] rx8geek@aussie.zone 2 points 2 years ago It's true but from what I have heard it can be a bit of a ball ache getting the warranty with them, but that's par for the course for grey import so nothing really special about Kogan. They may have a better reputation than most, but with an import you accept it could be a hassle. That said, I think going with the cheapest and upgrading the SSD is the best choice. Also wouldn't hold my breath that if/when a local steam deck is released, it will be at all competitively priced. permalink fedilink source parent
