I think EK will have some good and young 777s available. I think for Pakistani airlines it might be a good deal in case these are below 12 years

Dubai, UAE - 7 December 2015: Emirates has announced its fleet plans for 2016. In total, the airline will retire 26 aircraft, including 12 A330-300s, 4 A340-300s, 1 A340-500, 6 Boeing 777-200ERs, 2 Boeing 777-300s and 1 Boeing 777-300ER. The average age of the Emirates aircraft slated for retirement in 2016 will be 15.7 years, well-below the average industry retirement age of 25. In addition, 13 more aircraft will be retired in 2017 and another 13 will be retired in 2018.

Emirates have a very high aircraft utilisation rate, it wouldn't be recommended to lease or purchase ex Emirates aircraft.
