Would You Recommend Using 10 Year Old Outlines for Law School?

I need some advice... I'm going to be a 1L this fall. I just found someone who's willing to sell me 40 used commercial outlines for less than the cost of one new commercial outline! They cover her whole legal education - 1L courses and on.

The kicker: They're about 8-10 years old.

Would it be harmful for me to trust such outdated books? Do outlines tend to change much from decade to decade? Should I take this bargain and weed out the few good outlines, or use the $ for one new outline instead?

If they were only a couple of years old, I would say go ahead. But 8-10? I wouldn't use them. You can find used commercial outlines at your school bookstore for half the price of new and they are usually only a semester old. If you are trying to save money, I would try that instead. Just a thought.

Absolutely not! Many issues/laws/standards could have changed. Also, why are you paying for them. You can download FREE 1L outlines on Outlines. Definitely don't use 10 year old ones.
