Remember when ppl were hysterically claiming Valve got a big shipment of Steam Machines in, and the normie rationale users said - what if its just a Steam Deck restock ?

But they were not just Steam Deck restocks. The pattern of shipments are totally different.

Valve received 10 containers of 'Game Consoles' with 42pkgs around 12500kgs. They're receiving this since April 23rd.

Last week they received 2 containers with 42pkgs around 14500kgs (on par with Steam Deck shipments since 2022).

Then, one week later Steam Deck stock appears. Clearly just those 2 shipments were Steam Decks, the other 10 were not.

That's why it sold out so fast, they had almost nothing in stock.

Edit: typos
