how old is too old when buying speakers?

I am considering buying Linn Tukan speakers over the net that are 5 years old. I was wondering whether people would consider this too old to buy speakers, and whether people have had good experiences in general buying audio equipment over the net? It seems a little scary buying components that are used that you have not heard.

speakers that have a good quality cabinets can never get old.
drivers are replacable even on some of them you can replace just a voice coil on older models if the driver surface is still stiff.
thiels are probably the oldest descent speakers out there that are OK for used.
kefs might not be as good...
