I got this African violet at a estate sale and it as some leaves that don’t so good and I just want to know if anyone knows if it’s normal or if something wrong

May just be from shock of moving, or lack of nutrition. My FLF threw a fit after I first got it and dropped three huge leaves

African violets don't tend to drop old leaves on their own, so you can prune or pinch them off (I usually wait until they're brown, but you can remove them earlier for aesthetic reasons.) You can also trim off the flower stalks since the blooms are dry. Old leaves will always be the bottom ones, so if you see discoloration higher up on the plant, that's a sign of a health issue

Make sure it has well draining soil and keep it in consistent conditions to prevent it from stressing further. I wouldn’t repot it for a few weeks if it’s not stinky around the roots as you don’t want to loose leaves
