I just bought a 16 inch MBP at Best Buy. This might be a silly question, but do I need to set it up before purchasing Apple Care Plus? I tried checking eligibility for AC+ and Apple‘s website is giving me a message that the item is not eligible for additional coverage.

Upstate NY . Was FL.
Same here, it says "were sorry, choose another device ..." Prior to that it stated same message as OP.

Just out of interest, what warranty end date is it giving you for the 12 month standard care? I bought my MBP recently and I checked my warranty status on day one and it was short changing me by 7 days

This happened to me also. Easy fix: I called apple and they easily straightened everything out. Chat or schedule a call here.
