Hmmm... they start with a couple hundred on promo, people buy a couple
hundred, and suddenly they don't have a couple hundred anymore? Makes
sense to me.

It at least looks like realtime stock figures, at least based on committed
orders. I had 5 in my cart, had to reboot, came back and the price had
been updated for me to the full price. So I suspect they just had a
certain number of the refurbs on promo and they sold out. Not too
surprising.
