The problem with wood is it dries out over time and gets brittle. Maple is especially notorious for this. If those wood props were kept in a controlled environment for much of their life so they didn’t dry out too much, then yes.. They should be fine. Coming from eBay - it’s anyones guess. I prefer to play it safe myself and stick to what I know the history of.
