I have got some CS items that I can turn into monies in my Steam wallet that I again could turn into a Steam Deck. The only problem is that I live in Norway and therefore can not.
I am tempted to switch my location to Sweden and order it to an address there since I live quite close, but I am wondering if this would break TOS or in some other way make this unviable?
No worries, I am also norwegian and I have a Deckert. There is absolutely no restrictions on using the Deck with your account in Norway. Only hassle is the actual acquiring of the machine.
Cant buy it at all. I thought about the forwarding thing, but that isnt really the issue since I can just drive to Sweden and pick it up (and some cheap booze at the same time).

Thanks for your reply!
How did you get yours?
I have a friend in Køben that I ordered it through, and went to pick it up there :)
Is Steam refusing to ship it to Norway, or you can’t buy it at all? Maybe you can you use some kind of package forwarder?
I used to use https://www.mailboxde.com/ back when Amazon still refused to ship Kindles directly to my country and it worked just fine.
