The 10 years figure is probably taking into account proper storage of the tires while they were on the car. Even parking the car outside in cold temps for the winters will reduce the life of the tires.
If you're buying from a private party, maybe ask them to knock a few hundred off? I would replace the tires ASAP, 7 years is a while especially if you can't account for where the car was for those 7 years. Why risk it?
