quick question about used springs

Thinking about buying some used springs. I didn't know but wanted to confirm with everyone. Does it really matter how long used springs has been used before?

I read somewhere that after the spring settle, it doesn't matter if the springs were used for 5k or 20k miles. Once the spring settle, it'll stay that way.

Am I ok buying some 20K used springs?

Thank you very much!

+1 to that... I was getting so frustated when trying to sell some used springs off of my STi and buyers saying that 30k mile were too high... if that was true most cars' suspensions would be done in less than two years
