Would you buying short stoke air cylinders if it was a good deal?

I have been searching on Ebay for air cylinders and notice there are several listings for short stoke (3-4 inch) cylinders. Some listing have multiple items for one price.

Can these short stoke cylinders really be used for anything or skip them and just go for the 6 inch + size stoke cylinders?

it would basically take adapting your mechanism to accomandate shorter stroke. if that makes sense
