Default Used cams

I know getting used cams is ok to do. I was just wondering what the highest mileage you all would buy a cam. Is 15000 miles on a cam TOO much? Im kinda worried about buying one with that many miles.

as long as it doesn't look scarred up, it should be good to go

Ya, roller cams dont wear like old tappet cams do. I wouldnt be afraid of a roller cam even if it had 30 or 40k on it as long as it looked good. Just check it over, make sure it doesnt have any bad spots anywhere like everyone else said.
