Is it a good idea to get used rotors?

I saw them on StangParts.com for $20 ea. They obviously need to be turned, but isn't there a bearing race in them? I'm not sure if a brake lathe is precise enough for that (they appeared to have a layer of rust covering the entire rotor).

I'd like to go with used rotors because of the price difference ($100-$130 each for new).

Thanks,

Rich D.
