They normally are in perfect conditions, Apple repairs any problems they may have. And I suppose they also try to clean out any small scratches.

But I don't think they replace the entire case. But still, refurbs are a great deal.

I just bought a refurb MB (black) after the new models came out, and it seems perfect in every way (and a very good deal cheaper too). I also bought a refurb iMac a few years ago and again it was perfect; it did not even have a refurb serial number, but the MB did have and is labeled as "Apple Certified Refurbished" under the battery.
