Apple care from ebay

[beerglass007]

Has anyone purchased a cheap Applecare from ebay for a Imac and had problems ?

I take it they email you the key and it all looks good until you try claiming ?

I purchased 2 for my Macbooks but never claimed, now heard they don't work. Is this correct ?

Thanks

Read it ALL.

It will answer your questions.

AppleCare bought on ebay with a "code only, no box", is a SCAM, plain and simple.

You have been duly warned.

I bought 2 Applecare for Macbook Pro and one for an iMac (27") and everything went great (all 3 were emailed codes).

On one of the macbook pro I had LOTS of work done before and AFTER the one year mark so my warranty was valid for sure (believe me I was on the phone with them ALL the time, it was the first gen Intel MBP....)
