New MB with dark pin

[Stephen_177]

Installing new MB and noticed this dark spot. Should I pack this up and return it?

You need to zoom in to see it on left hand side of socket.

That looks like a bent/mangled pin to me. I would return the MB.

Yup return it if possible
if you cant then use the needle carefully to bring it in its position
