Yes, correct. If a lens appears to be worn out because of optical and mechanical wear and tear, I won't look at it.
While vintage lenses tend to be simple, reviewing a sample suffering from haze, fungus, or decentering is pointless.
It's quite a gamble with 40 years old lenses anyway ...
I'm currently considering a Minolta MC Rokkor 100mm f/2.5 but more than half of these lenses at eBay are ... filthy.
