This, 100%. My current company moved offices and bought new chairs that the interior designer thought looked better in the new space, so ~50 perfectly good aerons found their way to one of these liquidators.
Many of these liquidation companies with steam clean the chairs for you too, at least in my experience, so the chair will look almost new even if it's fairly old. And a high quality office chair is something that really lasts for quite a while. My used Leap that I got for $150 3 years ago from a liquidation company was manufactured in the mid 90s and I find it every bit as comfortable as the brand new aerons and other chairs that I've used in offices.
