💾 Is it a good idea to buy used floppy disks? 💾

Most people abandoned floppy disks long ago, but vintage computer enthusiasts still have a use for them, especially older sizes and densities. New floppy disks aren't being made anymore, so is it a good idea to buy used diskettes? I bought a lot of 3.5" 720K diskettes in unknown condition, looked at the old files that remain on them, and reformatted them.
