Best place to get Applecare for my wife's MacBook Pro - Ted King - 10-24-2012

My wife has a base model 13" MacBook Pro that is less than a year old. She informed me this morning that she would like to get Applecare for it. I know we can get Applecare directly from Apple, but is there a bit cheaper place to get it that isn't eBay?

Thanks.

B & H has decent prices, the 13" for $190.

LA Computer is a go to place as well, quoting $178 for the 13 inch MBP

I have bought AppleCare from LA Computer many, many times. Never a problem and great prices.

Another vote for LA Computer. Nice people, excellent products.

Thanks everyone. I went with the B&H deal because by the time I added in shipping and tax from LA Computer - neither of which applied to the B&H deal - that made LA Computer's price higher by several dollars. I thought that I had heard that B&H is a fairly "good" retailer - I hope I remembered correctly.

B&H is fine. I plan to get AppleCare there for my MBP and Mac Pro.

B & H is a great retailer, never had a problem. Very knowledgeable and helpful staff at the NYC store.
