I have bought a bunch of new helmets fairly recently I typically replace every 5 years or so. I typically wear a cycling cap and take care of my helmets. I currently own a Laser Z1, Lazer Revolution, ABUS Gamechanger and still have my old Giro Synthe which I rarely ride with and more just keep around because it was my first really nice helmet. I would never buy a used helmet from anyone ever for any reason no matter what the deal was. I will never know what that person has done with that helmet, if they have dropped it or crashed in it or even taken care of it. It is a risk I have no interest in taking.
