are the rq8 wands worth anything?

I was not sure if this is the correct place for this thread but to post in PC thread I need a specific items and I am just asking in general.
I came accross few rq8 max damage uniscribable gold wands (truncheons, rods etc). Whenever I ask someone in-game for pc then I get the answer that only rq 8 melee weapons or shields are worth something but not the wands. Is it true? If yes why it is so?

it would be so because you need x req on a melee weapon to produce max base damange while on a wand the requirement also affects damage done through wanding...which is never seriously considered an important factor.

In short requirement is important on melee weapons and not so much on caster

somebody ight want it for rarity's sake.
