Looks like there is a lot of confusion over the golden key and treasure boxes.

Apparently either Gearbox or people in general are saying to not use the key until your second playthrough since that would maximize the rare weapon possibility and the boxes themselves only hand out items based on your character's level. There is another way to open them earlier but it involves getting another 3 people playing with you and I think they need to be at a higher level in order for you to get copies of their weapons.
