is it not cheaper / easier to just by a new fan and take the pins from them?

not really they sell for about 75 cents each in US problem is every time i buy something from US i get nailed at boarder example i bought a slot cooler when they were released my bill was $5.87 US after fees, taxes and so on the bill was $25.

You have no idea how many times this has happened to me, I had no clue they sold them individual. I have a really sexy 775 fan I have been wanting to use, but thought it was useless due to a bent pin.

I SO HATE those pins. Worst design ever.

I agree... USELESS DESIGN!

And there was me think I was being ham-fisted!

Hateful things designed by the Devil himself.

Probably cheaper to buy a new fan though than replace those pins especially as the customer will see they've got something substantial for their money.
