Is it ok to buy HPE/Aruba switches off of Amazon.com?

I've seen may people on here recommend against buying Cisco switches on Amazon because of gray market or counterfeit hardware concern as well as lifetime warranty possibly not being honored, but what about HPE/Aruba? Should this also be a concern? I'm looking to buy a single 2930F and they are significantly cheaper than the last quote I got from our current HPE switch provider (like 1/2 price). HPE warranty has been great for me. They have even exchanged dead 3Com switches that we bought in 2010. So I have no fears about Aruba/HPE warranty coverage.
