On the other hand I have 3 quarts of Castrol Syntec 75w90 for differentials and transfer case fluids flush.215,xxx kms on the clock and I doubt those were ever changed.SA at the dealership says they looked OK,just looked not burnt..but come one..215,xxx sounds like a lot,doesn't it?
Do you think it's a bad idea to refresh the fluids,should I pass?

Changing the differentials isn't a bad idea IMO, using that Castrol. Just make sure the job is done correctly, proper fill level, and that there are no leaks, and it will be fine.
There is nothing to burn the fluid in the differentials, they don't have any clutch plates.
That 75w-90 is not the correct fluid for the transfer case, if you were planning on using it there.
Yes, it is a lot of km, but nothing unusual.
