@Steam trying to reserve a Steam Deck but the site kept erroring out and now I'm getting the "It looks like you've been attempting a lot of purchases..." error. WTF? How can I resolve?

@Steam My preorder has been torpedoed: “It looks like you’ve been attempting a lot of purchases in the last few hours”. Obviously I’ve been attempting a lot of purchases in the last few hours due to the issues with the purchase workflow!

@Steam How do we fix the fact that it says "you've tried too many times, try later?". I never got an order through. That should have been turned off for this

@Steam how about you take a note from beauty companies and queue your site...so people can't all get on at the same time, and when they do get on, they can actually preorder. Errors for "too many purchases in a short time" when your system won't push payments through......

@Steam what is this nonsense your website is pulling, saying I’ve tried to make too many purchases? I’ve been trying to make *one* purchase, preordering your silly Steam Deck. Fix your ******, god damn bush league website.
