Sort of. If they're old and have thread on them, then I figure they must be good because they've been used. I haven't run into an old bobbin yet that's bad, only new ones. Luckily I bought a bunch of good new ones a few years ago when Jenny was still testing hers, plus with all the old ones I've gotten with machines and fiddly bits I've bought I should be set for life as long as I don't give away a handful like I used to with each machine I flip.
