Plugins that are 2+ years old have the best deals...

Mostly true, yes.

I'd even extend that window to 5 years, and in some cases 10. 

The prudent consumer does, however, have to beware of old products that just never were very good from the start and are now being discounted in a last-ditch attempt to squeeze a few bucks out of them. I've been suckered into buying some products that once had a lot of buzz, that were previously too expensive to have actually tried them, and that turned out to be crap.

It depends on what one considers "best," I'd say.

If someone watched a product introduced a year or two ago, wanted it, but couldn't justify the purchase, then saw it go on sale at a deep discount, then yes. That's a common scenario. Glitchmachines' Tactic and iZotope Neoverb were like that for me.

But if someone has been waiting for their favorite company to release a new product and said product is released at a deep intro discount, that could be a "best" deal as well. Also not an uncommon scenario. MeldaProduction MTurboAmp was like that for me.
