I just got my UD3R from UPS, is it normal for the Gigabyte box to not be shrink wrapped?

Here's the CPU I intend t put in it, OCed of course

Motherboards from Newegg are not shrink wrapped at all.

My box did not have a seal on it but the bag was sealed and nothing was missing

My Asus P5N-D was.

Ahh, the new E 6300 that will be a welcome addition. We are up to our necks in E8xxx and Q6xxx and Q9xxx. It will be great to see what you do with it. I have an old E 6300 out of a Dell that has never been overclocked. One day i'm going to throw it on my board and get you guys to help me overclock it.

I don't recall mine being shrinked either... Look inside and make sure all the components are there and nothing looks damaged. Did it come UPS or Ground Mail?

UPS, the Newegg box was still taped,
I checked for marks on the mother board that would indicate it to be an open box item but there were none.

I also made sure that ever thing was there.

I'm just making sure Newegg did not ship me an open box item when I payed for new.
