Second hand deck? (lemmy.fmhy.ml)

Hi all, just purchased a pretty much brand-new deck (used for 2hrs) from eBay. I've also got the receipt. Is there anything I should be aware of? It was only purchased last month, will valve honour any warranty?

Edit. Turned up yesterday and it's immaculate so all good so far! Doesn't even look used so I'll count this as a good buy for now!

I cannot post because of language settings

Edit: NM I can. This was just a test as I've been getting errors posting comments on this community. (Language_not_allowed)

Id check to see if the steam deck was opened at some point. See if there's any wear or signs around the screw holes on the back.

Id also do a factory reset too, since it's essentially a computer, you don't know what software may have been installed.
