Why not? I buy pretty much everything secondhand and have never had trouble. The mad thing is that loads of people seem to sell shoes after a single 5k run. There's a Facebook group called running gear for sale and it's full of pairs around the £40 mark that have been used once or twice.
Coupled with the atrocious conditions for people making shoes and the ridiculous amount of pairs for sale in barely used condition I see it as a positive thing to do!
