1992 Mitsu. large CRT set...bad caps?

I saw a really big (36"? 40"?) CRT Mitsubishi set at a thrift store yesterday. It was made in 1992 and powers up. There is snow on the screen but the scan lines look bunched together in the center like there is a bad cap in the vertical.
Is this a model which will have tons of bad caps and will end up being a "white elephant" or did the mitsubishi bad cap phenomenon come to an end by 1992?
I don't want to get the set if it's likely to have a bunch of future cap failures.
