I recently purchased a MacBook Air (2018 I think) from a local mall. It's new and everything. I been trying to purchase Apple Care and was told I could for a certain amount of time after my purchase. I only purchased my laptop two days ago but when I put in the serial number for AppleCare, it tells me my laptop is not eligible. Is there a way around this?

Was the MacBook purchased from an authorized retailer? If not, then if the retailer you purchased the MacBook from purchased the MacBook themselves from a distributor/authorized retailer, then the warranty period started at that time. If that sale was done over 1 year ago (length of standard warranty) then you will not be able to purchase Apple Care.
Hi,
Try to contact Apple Support to tell them about circumstance you face with now.
