unopened
Never been accessed
Unopened describes something that remains in its original sealed or closed state, never having been opened.
It most often applies to containers, packages, letters, or products: The unopened mail sat on the counter for days.
Unopened items are typically assumed to be in pristine condition, which is why collectors prize unopened vintage toys and why stores will only accept returns of unopened merchandise.
