Re: [CGUYS] think i've been taken: replacement laptop keys
Judy Contact an electronics recycler. They get all kinds of computers and peripherals. When they can, they fix them, otherwise they sell parts, or or dismantle and recycle the parts into base components and elements. I just found a video card for one of our older computers for about 25% of the price for used ones online. I've found Wifi cards, optical drives, almost new mice, projectors. Call a few recycling companies. Maybe they have the full keyboard for the price of a few keys. Doesn't hurt to ask.

I would imagine it would depend on the laptop. I have lost and replaced keys on my MacBook.

Re: [CGUYS] think i've been taken: replacement laptop keys
I have no idea who you ordered from but if it was Ebay check and see if it was HK or China. If I want it fast, I find a domestic seller, and pay a little extra. Otherwise I bide my time, as shipping from there can take a month. Yes individual keys can be replaced. You need to be careful as there are usually little barbs or hooks on them that break easily. But you can replace individual keys and it is easier than opening up and replacing keyboards. So first check and see where you bought them from and see if it is overseas. Second contact the seller and ask what is going on. I ordered a book before Christmas did not arrive within 4 weeks.Contacted seller, he issued refund. Book promptly showed up on my door step.
