They have two products with the same description but different prices and different model numbers. Both say 'Apple Watch Series 8 Cell 45mm Product Red'. But one has MNVU3LL/A - $400 and the other has MNVR3LL/A - $366 (now $361).

My guess is that they have a typo on one of them. I can't find a product matching MNVU3LL/A on Bestbuy or other sites. But the $361 priced MNVR3LL/A matches their Series 8 cell 45mm Product Red.

This seems fishy.

That is fair. I assume you can argue and such if it comes fake or not new.

Not a typo, when you google the model numbers, The only differences between the two is the band sizes. So the cheaper one includes an S/M band instead of M/L on the higher priced one.

I've purchased from VIPOutlet a few times (refurb iphones and Apple Watches) (pre-2020). They have good refurbished products that are like new, at reasonable prices and I never had a problem. I actually have them as a saved seller incase I'm looking for refurb products again.

*EDIT - I'm actively waiting for refurb Apple Watch Ultra's to start rolling out, and this seller I would consider purchasing one from.

Thanks for that detail. I couldn't find the one on a google search or on Best Buy. But it was late *shrug*. Brain fog.

Thanks for posting your experience. Repped.

Any idea on the source of the refurbs you have bought?

You mean where did they get their product to repair and sell? I have no clue to be honest.
