[QUOTE="RavingMac, post: 1169541, member: 45350"] You are absolutely right. I generally give precedence when I buy from Amazon that it is actually sold and shipped by Amazon, but even on third party deals where Amazon is simply the intermediary you get substantial protection. I have never had any problem on anything I bought direct from Amazon on returns and the only occasions I had with third party sellers I emailed Amazon of the situation and my attempts to resolve directly with the seller and Amazon immediately intervened and I got my refund. In the situation I am citing, the seller had restrictions on their refund policy (their internal store policy) that was not in keeping with Amazon policy. Bottomline: I still prefer to buy direct from Amazon but have no apprehension about third party sales either. EDIT: I was curious and went back to check. My last Applecare purchase was for two iPad packages. I saved about 13% on the list price, plus tax, plus free shipping (Amazon Prime shipping). But the seller was Trimex Digital Systems, LLC , so it was a third party sale in this case. [/QUOTE]
