Question what are the symptom's of a blown coilover?

OK, here is the deal. i bought a used set of mismatch s13 coil overs. fronts are old style teins with pillow-ball and camber plates, rears are bilsteins with pillow-ball top mounts. they were advertised as working non-leaking, good condition. for under $500 shipped.

other than them leaking, how could i tell if they are good are not before i go threw the trouble of installing them. i dont know if this matters or not but they compress with my body weight and return back up when i let off, but to me it seems too easy, comparing my weight to that of a car.

ill post pictures of them in a bit, with hopes of someone being able to identify what i have exactly.

thanks, ronnie.
