You didn't do anything shady to get the thing so I have to wonder who it is you think you would be hurting?
The person that buys it from you is an equal participant in the transaction. The can on their own accord decide if it's worth the price you are asking.
The vast majority of things you own will only go down in value. Why are you conflicted now that you happen to own something that has become more valuable then when you bought it? If the Steam Deck were some old console that you bought in 1995 that happened to be worth more now than then it was new would you have the same quandary about selling it?
The only advice I can give you is the standard advice given to anyone selling anything which is you can always start with a high price and if it doesn't sell work your way down but you can't do the opposite.
It's not you that determines how valuable your Steam Deck is. It already has value but you don't know exactly what it is. You can do one of three things:
1. Price it too low. Basically giving free money to the buyer.
2. Price it too high. Which means it won't sell.
3. Price it correctly. The buyer pays exactly what it's worth. This price can only be found by starting high and working down.
In the end it's important to remember that as much as people want them the Steam Deck is just a luxury toy and whether you sell it or keep it or smash it in your driveway it doesn't matter in any real way.
