Used Springs Question

Waiting on some used Eibach's to come in the mail. The previous owner had the springs on his car for a year.

Do I need to wait for the springs to settle before getting an alignment? Or have the springs settled already since it has been on his car for a year?

Never bought used springs before, so If I can get the alignment done right after I would. Thanks.

They need to settle again. They expand again when they're not under pressure. They will settle again when put under compression again. Let them settle a few days.
