Turbo gaskets reusable?

I'm looking to replace my stock turbo on my T2. Are the turbo-to-downpipe and turbo-to-manifold gaskets reusuable metal gaskets?

They're so expensive.

Yes, if they do not have any signs of cracking or exhaust leaks.

When I ported my wg I took off the turbo from the manifold and reused the gasket. It was fine and no exhaust leaks. I also reused the turbo/dp gasket and no problems.
