Not in my experience. Surplus, yes -- pulls, no.
I've bought lots of fuses and odd transistors from them
without problem.
That's been my experience too - I bought some uPD765 FDCs (actually Rockwell
R6765s, but effectively the same chip) from them a while back. No trace of
damage to the pins, no solder on them, still the same length they were when
the chips left the factory, and still splayed out.
Speaking of the 765s, I still need to build an MFM data separator...
Later.
