I've had some excellent success with bent pins on processors and sockets. It takes a lot of patience, a magnifying glass and a really thin razor blade. With the razor blade, I've been able to realign 4-5 pins in a row at a time. You just have to be very careful and be very patient. My favorite is the angled blade pen usually found in an electronics tool kit. It fits perfectly between the pins with very little slack. Instead of tilting the blade left or right, you twirl the blade in the direction that you need to go to align the pins. Just remember, if you don't have the patience, you may just break the pins off their housing and then the part is hosed for good. For those without the patience, it may just be easier to attempt to return the part, although this doesn't always meet with success.
