Would you buy a used clutch?

I would like to know your opinions to see if you would buy a used clutch. I am purchasing a used clutch coming from a 2002 Z06 which comes with pressure plate and flywheel. There's 15k miles on it and nothing wrong with it, price is $100 plus shipping.

Just wanted to know if its a good idea to by a used clutch or not. Also the seller is a member of another forum and seems to be a cool guy. I am not looking to getting major RWHP from my car. Just want it to run good because its my DD.

If you want to save some cash, have it re-lined. I did that with mine.... I couldn't decide on what to put in, so I did that. I think it cost me around $150 CDN to have the pressure plate tested, cleaned up via bead blasting, the flywheel re-surfaced and my existing clutch disc re-lined with new material. It only has a few thousand km's on it from my conversion in June till I parked it in October, but I have had no issues with chattering or likewise. My car is basically stock, few bolt ons.
