If you bend CPU pins on the motherboard and straighten them out, will it be usable again?

I just bought a motherboard for 60% off due to it being used and having the the pins being bent and having to be straightened. The claim was that the pins were straightened as much as possible and that the motherboard was "like new". I did buy this mother board off of amazon from a user with the name of Deals Clash. He has great positive feedback from 404 different buyers with 0% negative feedback all 5 stars. I just hope that this motherboard will be well "like new".

What do you guys think?

This was the motherboard that I bought: http://www.amazon.com/ASUS-Micro-Motherboard-B85M-G-R2-0/dp/B00KO6F8YI?ie=UTF8&psc=1&redirect=true&ref_=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00

I got it for 29.99 instead of $60.

Lol found my answer.
"You should be fine running the CPU even if the last mobo had bent pins. As long as it is running fine and not heating up to much you should be fine. It's 50/50 because for some people it works, and for others it doesn't, it seems that yours is fine."
