I think that it is just wonderful! So many things are bought and then trashed, it's nice when they can be passed on to the next generation of kids that will love them. My son's favourite present was a Cozy coupe that I bought for $5 at a garage sale. He plays with it EVERYTIME we go outside and there is always a fight for it. My other son got a train table with all the bells and whistles second hand last Christmas and he loves it too. We wouldn't have been able to afford it if it wasn't second hand, and it was all he wanted! I still remember the second hand dollhuse my parents got me and my sister. It was huge and went up nearly to the roof and came with all sorts of handmade barbie clothes and handmade furniture. It felt even more special because you could tell you couldn't find it in a store, and I found some kids initials scratched into the top bedroom. So when I grew out of it, I did the same for the next kid hopefully creating a tradition when it gets passed from one generation to the next. I wouldn't let anyone make me feel bad about giving my kids a great Christmas and saving money at the same time! Good for you!
