Did Anybody on the Forum Purchase a Mint Bag?

OK, Ok, this was probably a waste of money but like most of you, I collect just about anything! 
At any rate, the bag arrived today and to my surprise, this is not a used bag but appears to be a brand new one. The silk screening looks fresh and there are no signs of stitching where the bag may have been sewn closed!
The possibility for someone to fill this with $2000 worth of circulated dollars, sew it up and sell it for "mint sewn" seems pretty good. You'd never know unless you opened it. And with only one set of stitch holes, whose to say you didn't switch them out?
Given the number of scum bag (no pun intended) sellers out there, am I being paranoid or should the "mint sewn bag" collectors be wary? Has anybody else ordered and received a bag?

I decided to change calling the bathroom the John and renamed it the Jim. I feel so much better saying I went to the Jim this morning.

Tracking shows they're on their way. Good to hear that your bags were unused!
