I am happy with my Pixel 8 pro, but would like to play around with an iphone 15 pro, mostly just the camera. Apple website doesn’t have any refurbed Pro available. Are there any trustworthy refurb website, or any NOT trustworthy websites to avoid? I read mixed results with Amazon, since it’s really various 3rd parties that are shipping them, not Amazon per se.

Some of the Best Buy's in my area have them (TX - not sure if it's nationwide or not). Most are like new with practically no signs of use, and some even have 100% battery health. They're not the cheapest - around $800, but if you're getting an almost or practically new 15 Pro, that price isn't terribly unreasonable.
 
Apple EU refurb store has them. So i guess it will come also in US soon
 
I just picked one up on eBay from Amazing Wireless (256GB White Titanium Unlocked listed in Excellent condition). It came without any noticeable scratches or dings, although it does have a screen protector on it and I haven't taken it off (and put on another one yet). Battery was 100% and had 17 cycles.

How much if you don't mind me asking?
 
It was $664.99 before tax. Looks like they raised it $10 since then, and also fewer colors are available.
Search for Item 166613095133.

That's a good deal. It's likely a certified refurb, but normal retailers (like Best Buy) are selling those for $150-200 more with that little usage on them. Nice find!
