No idea but it's time to replace those rotors AND find out what's tearing them up.

If they're never been cut before.. you could try to cut them first, but idk.. i'd rather get new rotors.

Does it only vibrate when you brake?

Have them replace rotors and pads then take it for a test drive. You also have to think if they are willing to sell a car like that, you never know how much they neglected the maintenance on the rest of the car.

The vibration at highway speeds is most likely caused by the car needing the tires balanced. From the way it sounds and looks though, it doesn't seem like they took very good care of it.

I'd replace those rotors asap. Pitting = starts of cracks.
