You haven't included your location in tour profile so I can't give you any advice on RMA as an option instead.

It might be worth finding out how Gigabyte Australia views the bent pin problem from a RMA point of view as different countries seem to have a different outlook on it. If you think you can sort it yourself then fine if not try asking the manufacturer. ;)

it appears that I got it from eBay.. And I tried straightening the pins and stuffed up on some more I cannot contact gigabyte in aus because they don't have their own branch and I just stuffed it up even more trying to fix it. I heard I can send it back still..

I really don't know how Gigabyte Australia view this problem but hopefully they will put a new socket on for you. Good luck.
