Went ahead with buying a bikes direct bike over a used bike. Why?

Arrived in 4 days. Ordered Thursday night. Left Texas on Friday morning, arrived Tuesday afternoon in Portland, OR. Dang. Free shipping on a $250 bike. Hopefully the bike is good still!
Need to grease quill stem, pedals still. Also tighten spokes. Tighten brakes to be upright with no wiggle, also start close to rim.
