Default low compression numbers

Finally got my b18 and ran compression test and first run I got 210, 200, 180, 170 thought that was kinda low so shot a squirt of oil in each and got 220, 220, 210, 205. I had the motor shipped and don't know how long it been since ran. Should I be consirned? Or is this fairly normal?
