Tweeters are relatively easy to fry but it is more difficult (though not impossible) to damage a crossover.
If you have an inexpensive multimeter and the seller will let you remove the tweeters, you can check to see if you're getting AC signal through to the tweeter terminals. That increases the odds (though doesn't guarantee) that the crossovers are OK.
Depending on how much the seller is willing to take, the speaker model involved, and the cost of OEM replacement tweeters, it could be a reasonable gamble to pick them up.
Just remember you have lots of variables and no guarantees if you don't get a complete checkout from a qualified tech. Your call.
