I need to get an Applecare kit for my Powerbook, as it's already been in for repair twice and know I'll need AC. I found a kit on eBay for $185, which is almost half of what Apple sells it for (although I can get edu from Apple for $239). The guy has 167 feedbacks, all positive, and previous Applecare items were sold and mentioned on feedback. Everything about the auction seems legit, but how can he be selling it for so damn cheap? It jut seems like its too good to be true.

Thanks

edit: Sorry, this should probably be in Buying Advice, I wasn't paying attention :D
