Well, I've reworked 3 calipers now and am have fair success. The real question is 'how long will they last?' But the price is right and I'm learning some things along the way.

Thanks for all the advice. Much of it was helpful in getting the stuck pistons out. I used wet-800 sandpaper very lightly and it seemed to do the trick.
