Mountain Lion redemption code has already been used

Just gone through the process to get a redemption code for Mountain Lion. Successfully received the PDF that contained the code, tried to redeem it in the Mac App store and got an error saying:


"This code has already been used. Each code may only be used once."


Oh dear. Are they sending out duplicates? What should I do now?

Waiting for more than 30 hours... Bought a 1600€ Macbook Air 12 Days ago... My first Mac ever.


Honestly, Microsoft knows how to handle stuff like that. When they released Windows 7, I was able to register my Acer Box about 3 Month before release Date and hat the Downloadlink as well as the Key in my Mailbox at noon on launchday. This is so ridiculous
