No, actually, they weren't. They sent me new pistons and new rings, but told me not to use the new rings. In fact, they weren't just telling me to reuse the rings, they were adamant about it when I was questioning the smartness of doing so.

As cheap as a set of rings are why would you want to leave them to chance????? Thats like reusing your oil filter when you change oil...
To each their own, but when HQ, with their reputation and experience, tells me to do it, I'm going to listen. Obviously they were right as I've had zero problems since.
