After searching for a bit i find THIS article with all the announced sales dates. According to it there are still 3 main sale dates left:

  • Return of Steam Scream Fest (Halloween): October 26 - November 2 (additional details to come)
  • Autumn Sale: November 21 - 28 (major seasonal sale)
  • Winter Sale: December 21 - January 4, 2024 (major seasonal sale)

Anyone know if there are any concrete chance to have a discount on the console in these days?

    1. Refurbished ones are just as good as fresh ones, and basically always “on sale” since their price is reduced.

    2. Valve seems to be moving towards a very likely Steam Deck Refresh. Very little is known about when or how this will happen. Based on previous comments and data-mining, the refresh will have the exact same amount of gaming-power. It may, however, have a better WiFi-chip, better screen, and stuff like that. Nothing is certain and if you want a Deck soon-ish, I wouldn’t recommend waiting for this.

      Got a 64GB refurb when they were in stock end of September, honestly I couldn’t tell it was a refurb. It looked like new, the only thing that might have given it away was the carrying case, had a few small smudges but I got a Tomtoc anyway so it didn’t matter anyway.

      Given how bad the WIFI chip of the current Steam Deck is (it just doesn’t like some access points and has frequent connection losses with them), waiting for an updated one might be worth it.
