Why did MC website stop showing open box MacBook inventory ?

While MC used to let you search for open box MacBooks on the website, now you can't. MC seems to have switched all MacBooks to "buy-in-store"—so no online purchase or "18 minute pickup." Restricting all MacBooks like this also eliminated the ability to see open box inventory. It works for other open boxes, like PCs or monitors, just not MacBooks. Hoping it's a temporary BF bug.

So sorry for the late response! It appears that the issue has been fixed as they are appearing online now: https://www.microcenter.com/search/search_results.aspx?Ntk=all&sortby=match&prt=clearance&N=4294967288+4294820432&myStore=true

Still not working.

Customer team said it's some bug with ALL macbooks being switched to "buy in store" — no longer can reserve & pay online. Unknown if just a BF thing.

Unfortunately, still not fixed. Checked in with a local store that had 3 OB in stock, none of which show up online. The old open box inventory before Black Friday just isn't searchable/reservable. New OBs will pop up, but if you want the complete inventory at a store need to call. Real disappointed this still hasn't been fixed.
