Thank you zuzu for your comments! I've bought some discontinued Austins from Hortico like Belle Story, Pretty Jessica, Fair Bianca and a few others. I've never had a problem.
I recently bought Suntan Beauty from RVR after buying Marriotta, L. D. Braithwaite, and one other rose. Didn't have any drama with them either. I think my small purchases may have helped with keeping the chaos down.
