I would call Flexi direct and talk to them as I had a issue (not with a broke or lost dongle key) and they were great! My issue was I just bought new software and at the time had a PC and decided on my first visit to an Apple store that I was going to change everything to Mac! Of course the software did not work with Mac and when calling Flexi I was greeted by the greatest company that sent me a download for the same version in Mac and my dongle key worked perfectly. They are good people, they just may want the broken key before replacing but my money is on the fact that they will help you!

Me thinks it's like 99.00 if you have the broken dongle, if not then it's full price...
for flexi being a great company....

yeah they are! "great" ...and a "company" ... when friends "help you out" that might mean free $h!t... but when a company "helps you out"... it still costs you money, because it costs them money...

I think they would make him buy it again if it was reported lost or stolen.
Without the broken key to turn in they only have his word that he lost it and that it was not sold or traded to someone else.
I don't know about you guys but I have been ripped off far more times by fellow (local) sign men over regular off the street customers in the time I have been in business.

Because it is what makes the software operational and many untrustworthy people would sell them and say they lost it so that someone else could have a working copy!

F.W.I.W. you can legally make a copy of your dongle to have as a backup as long as it is "noninfringing use" per 37 CFR Part 201 Exemption to Prohibition on Circumvention of Copyright Protection Systems for Access Control Technologies; Final Rule.
The amendment to the DMA probably includes a software work around such as a dongle emulator - can't say for certain.
