NOS cartridges

I've seen several older carts for sale both used and NOS. I always thought there were issues with the elastomers and other materials in an older cart even though it may have never been used, making an investment in one a chancy proposition. Is this a valid concern?

I have a number of 20 and 30 plus years old carts (all MM or MI tho') and ALL sound very good in deed.
I had two new MC carts (Ortofon) and both of them had suspension problems and had to be replaced (a 6 month effort in each case).
Now go figure...
Grettings,
