Damaged fork in shipping???

Just got a new bike, and when I was assembling it I noticed that the front fork blades had way too small a spacing to accommodate the front wheel....the wheel is on in the picture (it's a used bike), and I was able to get the wheel on after I cold-set the fork a little wider. I probably moved it about 5 mm? Not really sure but it fits on now. It's definitely a steel fork but I was just wondering is there any chance that the fork was damaged in shipping to the point where I should buy a new one? It looks fine and it's steel, but just wanted to hear the opinions of others.
