Ask the seller to send you some photos.

If the pads are shot, then a full overhaul (which is a complete rebuild) will most likely be in order, but the price for that can vary depending who does the work and I'd recommend having leather pads fitted as they're more durable. If most of the pads are fine, then it could do with a full service which means replacing anything that needs doing.
