Return policy for Win XP...

[Sagekilla]

Does anyone know what the return policy is for a damaged Windows XP Pro SP2 disc? I bought a new copy recently off of newegg, and when I opened up the box it had a bunch of smudges all over the disc. They weren't big, but they weren't tiny either, and they won't come off when I try cleaning it.

Will I have to return this to newegg or to Microsoft, if it's even possible?
