Kogan sells them, as they have offices in Australia you should have some semblance of protection

Yeah, the Steam Decks sold by Kogan (as opposed to 3rd parties that are also sold on Kogan) is the safest bet.

I was a little too impatient and bought a 64GB model from a 3rd party on Catch instead. I got it about 1.5 weeks later and it's been pretty great so far (roughly 8+ months). I think I waited about 2 weeks before upgrading the storage to 1TB though...
