Safe to get AppleCare via eBay?

I've been looking at this: http://cgi.ebay.com/AppleCare-3YR-P...goryZ171QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

It would save me $150 and considering I've had my MBP worked on twice since its purchase 2.5 months ago god knows I need it.

My question is this - this IS the exact same thing Apple sells right? There should be any issue activating this thing?

up to $203...not really saving much

so long as it isn't registered or linked to another machine in some way it should be okay.

If in doubt, call Apple.

The APP on Apples website shows a cost of $349 so if I can pick it up for ~$200 i can potentially be saving $150 - seems like a lot to me.

oh my bad, I thought they were $249.
