Ok, well No 15"ers on Monday or Tuesday then.
There were new ones every day last week... now zero
are they all gone?
actually, the refurb store gets updated 1 am pacific following each weeknight. so, this morning would be the first time the store would be updated for the week. and i wouldn't think the lack of mbp stock to mean anything. if not now, there will surely be some soon.
I would think it would mean they don't have any refurbs at this/that particular time, check back later 
seems like common sense to me.

Holy smokes... where did you get so smart?

Process of deduction from a silly question my dear Watson. Your question lead to the obvious. I'm surprised you didn't figure it out.
many forum members will tell you that the refurbished are at par/ sometimes better than their "new" counterparts..
it has something to do with the quality inspection, so when you see a refurbished posted, most of the times it doesn't stay there for a long time since people are buying them.. considering the savings you'll be getting.
it's just weird, up to now i haven't seen an MBA on refurbished.
i have an MBP already and if only if i consider getting an MBA, it would definitely be a refurbished one

This is a very good point. I knew "resellers" will often watch things like this like a hawk and buy up when things become available. Normal users too who have been waiting and know the restock and update times will also watch the site and soon as 1 hits, they'll nab it up instantly.
It's almost like trying to buy a Wii at xMas time. Soon as you see Amazon has one, by the time you click "Add to Cart" it's already gone.
