Apple completely OOS of Refurbished products?

Maybe Apple decided that selling refurbished (not new) products might get them into trouble with Australian government agencies. Not worth the risk, really.

] just bought the missus a great little MBA last week and was hoping to do the same for the daughter - when 'hey presto' everything disappeared.
Three MBP's in the UK store, no iMacs, no anything else, but this happens from time to time...I wouldn't be getting excited about an iMac refresh just yet.
Same in the US store, totally empty. I was just going to pick up a refurbed Airport Extreme
Any idea how long it usually takes them to refresh (or whatever it is they're doing)?

The UK store occasionally doesn't have any stock - usually though when it's late at night.
Just checked the UK store and now getting 'The connection was reset' on Firefox - it was working an hour a go. Maybe they are updating it (or it's broken)
I'm tempted to get last years MBA for Mountain Lion as my 6 year old MacBook isn't supported
/edit it's back (probably our proxy server)

I've been refreshing this link occasionally, and it's still showing an empty refurb store for me: http://store.apple.com/us/browse/home/specialdeals/mac

Zero I just clicked on your link and found 40 assorted computers showing, iMacs, MacPro's and MacBook varieties.

That's weird. I see an empty store when I click his link. Likewise for the Canadian store.
missing inventory
Don't know hoe to help you I just tried the main store address, the link etc. on my iPad and MacBook Pro and found all stores full of inventory. the "shop clearance" section is in fact empty as usual.

Very strange. I was thinking at first it was my work's crappy old version of IE not refreshing properly or something, but I just tried from my phone and am seeing an empty store there as well.
I tried to check via the AppleStore app, but I don't see any way to view refurbs from there.
Clear your browser's cache and cookies and try again. There are plenty of refurbs available.
It came back up for me about an hour ago but is empty again now. Guess they are having some technical difficulties.
