Default old bindings?

My skis and bindings are about 15 years old. I haven't skiied in about
4 years. I took my skiis and boots in today to be tuned and was
immediately told that the tech wouldn't touch my bindings because he
can tell by looking at them they are ready to fall apart. They are
Salomons and I skiied perhaps a half dozen times a year for about 11
years straight. I am an intermediate skier, a lady of 66 years of
age. Is he giving me a line in order to sell me new bindings or is
this the norm? How can he possibly tell what condition they're in just
by looking at them or is the particular make/model prone to a short
life?
