M5 Macbook Pro would normally be on refurb store by now - but it's not

[TorontoSS]

Am I correct, that by now, the M5 Macbook Pro would have been on the refurb store by now? I noticed last year it had come online in February 2025 (the M4). it could have been because the M4's all came at the same time. But they aren't this year. I wonder if it is because of the price changes (i.e. 100 more but for more storage). And they don't want the macbook pro to be priced less etc. Any thoughts

I wouldn't mind getting one with 512gb!

I was wondering the same thing but I got no insight on it...

The M4 Pro was released beginning of November. The M5 Pro only at the beginning of this month.

Possibly that?

I'd go ahead & submit a tracker at https://refurb-tracker.com for MBP with keyword "M5"; it'll let you know when they're available. For all I know, they've been there & sold out multiple times by now.
