You must buy Applecare where you live (you have to register AC with your home address). You can't buy Applecare in the states and use it in India for example.
I bought AppleCare for my iMac off eBay; the iMac was purchased directly from Apple here in Japan. I had no problems activating it. :confused:
 
Yeah I have AppleCare on all my devices, all but one have been purchased on eBay. No trouble activating them or using em. I live in NC, I did have to use my old address in California to register them. Funny thing is the one AppleCare I actually bought at the Apple store here in NC had to be registered the same way.
 
I've also bought my applecare from eBay and haven't had any issues with it.
