newegg-broken pins on mobo

i opened up my motherboard and after a failed attempt of trying to install the cpu (latch wouldnt close) i realized a few pins where bent. I sent it back to newegg for a refund so i can buy a new mobo...does anyone know if i have a good chance of getting this rma approved?

It probably will be accepted. (I've sent some crude things :P)

i hope so otherwise im out 300 bucks and a pair of nuts when my dad finds out

newegg is the best honestly. i have sent stuff back to them that they never should of taken back. there great.

They'll accept almost anything, even if it isn't messed up.

Once you build your first PC, the rest should be easy.

I have a friend who somehow managed to short his HD 4870, he had bought it for $270 at the time. He RMAd it against my advice (I told him not too, it was his own damn fault for screwing around in his case with the machine on). Well they no longer had that exact model anymore so they told him to choose another card that was around $270. Well between the time he bought it and the time he RMAd new and glorious things were priced at $270 so he ended up getting an HD 4850x2 out of the deal. Not a bad trade for being an idiot.Marfoo

[QUOTE="Marfoo"][QUOTE="JigglyWiggly_"] Newegg does stuff like that all the time, he got a deal :) BTW, why wouldn't you want him to rma it? If it's dead regardless of who's fault it is, I'd try to RMA it and get away with it.
