The only potential problem is if you plan to sell the machine and transfer the Applecare to the new owner. Apple requires a copy of the Applecare purchase receipt and might deem a non-authorized dealer to be unacceptable. If you don't sell the machine then you have nothing to worry about--and probably don't have to worry about it even if you do sell. Just something to think about.
