The only risk with replanting tubers from a store rather than certified seed potatoes is a higher risk of disease.

Since your's are already sprouted, you don't need to worry about the other problem present with non organic store bought potatoes. They are sprayed with sprouting inhibitors (chemicals) that prevent them from breaking dormancy.
