DO NOT BUY THEM FROM EBAY!

or any other one of those websites ... the resellers are scum and you've waited this long, you can wait longer! hold strong!

    No point anyway. It's not like they're difficult to manufacture or constrained by available components.

    Don’t jinx us… we’re in the middle of a war, there are new tariffs every other day. I’m sure something could happen to the controllers supply chain.

    Actually, that is a good point.. That being said, Steam as a company stays entirely apolitical.

    However, of course, someone at Valve would simply need to whisper anything Anti-trump, and Trump would actively invoke laws to sabotage them, and call them woke or whatever

    Are they manufactured in the US that seems like a bad idea.

    They were shipped into the US from Hong Kong, so probably manufactured (or at least assembled) in East Asia.

    Very interesting. The data shows that they stopped importing most controllers about three weeks ago.

    Is that because it takes that long for a boat to cross the pacific?

    Or was it their first batch and Valve is now waiting for the next one?

    Trying to figure out how long they will be out of stock
