I just got an email saying I was in the reservation queue for the 512GB steam machine. Anyone know roughly how long before the "come purchase it now" email should come through?

I know it varies, just looking for a vague timeline.

    I got in the queue on the first day of availability (June 22nd/26th), and have not yet got a purchase opportunity.

    UK.

    Edit: well, heck. Just found an email I missed. August 20th.

    I'm in the EU. My partner and I both signed up and it took 3 days for her and 5 days for me to get the purchase email

    In Canada, it was about a month and a half. I signed up during the launch week though so I assume wait times have gone down a bit.

    I had a reminder in my calendar every 2 days to check my email in case I missed it.

    I joined the wait list for a 512 with controller on 10/15 and got the purchase email a few minutes later. I’m in the us.

    No one knows. Some people are still waiting. Go back to the Store page while logged in and see what it says.
