It is a roll of the dice, sometimes you get lucky. My five week tour last summer I used some front panniers I paid $8 USD for them. Someone had them as a garage sale item, still new with tags.
A year ago at a swap meet I picked up a set of old Cannondale Overland rear panniers for $15 USD that had very little use. I had a couple opportunities to more than double my money on them before I even left the swap meet but I chose to keep them.
