Just tested with the Index controllers in my basket and it does, to quote:
Although since you’re based in the US, I’d expect sales tax to be on top. In the UK VAT is usually included in listed prices, with exceptions to places like wholesalers or international like Aliexpress.
Yeah, was surprised the first time I started paying for stuff when visiting there.
lol I knew you were not that off from me !
Congrats!
I get my Sat. !! Thrusday might not ship till Monday
I have been 3rd printing stands and extra things all week
non so far... the fan is slightly noticeable but I was in a super quiet room. Once I was playing a game or a room with the tv/wife it was not noticeable. I just finished playing Desk Job.. and trying to add Roms and Repacks
It think it’s being blown way out of proportion.. it’s less then the switch on Max… but again it might be that my fan it’s working normal and other people are horrible but .. I was playing elden ring and the vol on less then half way I was not able to hear the fan at all
But I do have a small complaint.. the back has noticeable fingerprints… it’s bothering the shit out of me… lucky Amazon just delivered my screen protector and silicone case… fits super nice

Yeah you'd know almost immediately if you had the noisy fan. The quiet one makes a slightly audible "woosh" noise, the other makes a high-pitched whine. The whiny ones seem to be improperly manufactured for their purpose, as they use symmetrical blade spacing instead of asymmetrical.
Regardless, I'll live with it until replacements become available if I get the loud fan, assuming that's the only defect in the unit I receive. Covering the 5th and 6th top vent holes (middle ones) seems to be a temporary workaround to quiet the noise some as well.

They've actually commented on this and said it's a possibility if enough people ask for it. They typically don't make these small form factor fans.Would be awesome if Noctua stepped in at some point
In any case, iFixIt is also working on stocking the quiet ones if possible.
According to tracking my Deck is an hour away! I wasn't going to risk jinxing it but I'm too excited.
Erm...just to clarify: is that a local postmen/DHL/other courier message?
Because it's weird that valve first only ships what they can produce...and then have delays due to high volume.
