"The units in this event are being sold as "open box" condition. That means that they have been opened due to being a photo sample, a tested working customer return or having damaged packaging. Some non-essential items may be missing from the box. That is the reason for the reduced sale price and the reduced warranty."
It states 90-day warranty via Woot (not Nintendo) by the way.

The Switch 2 is the stronger pick for current and upcoming games, with solid Nintendo exclusives and surprisingly good ports from modern third party releases. The open box listing comes with important tradeoffs, though, since the units may be photo samples or customer returns, some non essential items may be missing, and the warranty is reduced to 90 days through Woot instead of Nintendo. The box also being labeled new makes the condition harder to judge. At this price, the main appeal is the hardware and game support, not the warranty or packaging.

At $449, it is only about $50 below the old new price, so the savings are modest for an open-box unit with reduced warranty. A better target price is around $399, and it was reportedly $387 the week before.
The box itself is hard to use as proof because unopened Switch 2 boxes reportedly have no stickers or seals. Checking whether the cords and screen protector were removed is a more practical way to spot prior opening.
The units are sold as open box and may be photo samples, tested working customer returns, or items with damaged packaging. Some non-essential items may be missing, and the warranty is reduced to 90 days through Woot instead of Nintendo's full factory warranty.
The factory warranty is lost, but open-box purchases can still qualify for credit card extended warranty protection. That can partially offset the reduced manufacturer coverage.

edit: I also don't like the sound of "Some non-essential items may be missing from the box."
