How long does it usually take for new products to start showing up in the Refurb store? Particularly, the new macbooks? Just curious ;D

It depends really. I'd give it about a month at least. Someone could buy a new MB or MBP and decide that they don't want it and return it and apple can then recertify it for resell.

Keep checking the Apple site though, you never know ;D
