  3. How much should I sell this blade for?

    I have a old Nittaku Millionblade made in Japan. I think it doesn't really suit my style, so I never use it. I was thinking to sell it, but have no idea what its worth or how much it should go for. A friend offered to buy, but I don't know the price. It's near perfection condition. Its quite...
  4. Buying Aliexpress products for other people

    Some guys in the club I play in needed new equipment, so I have been buying for them on Aliexpress. They don't really know how to use the site or what products to buys, they just leave it to me and pay me cash. I bought one guy a Sanwei 75 and another guy a Fang Bo Carbon. I bought some...

  6. Mercury 3 Rubber

    I ordered a sheet of Yinhe Mercury 3 for a friend. I haven't been able to play with it yet, but it looks impressive. The packaging looks a little premium, and it clearly uses higher quality paper packaging than many other rubbers. Even the print and ink seems to be a higher quality printer. It...
  7. Just tried Rxton 5 and T3

    Just tried a couple rubbers from Loki. A lot of people seem to be using Rxton 5, so I decided to give it a try. The sponge is really hard, 49d, and it looks a lot like a H3. Its really dense sponge and the topsheet is tacky. Based on reviews, I thought it would be quite fast, but I was a...

    HL5(and its equivalents) is so popular among fans, but is it popular among top pro players? Other than Ma Long, who else uses HL5?
  9. Yinhe rubber variation?

    Yinhe markets the Moon series as a alternative to Tenergy, so I decided to give it a try. I had a sheet of Yinhe Moon Speed hard, and it wasn't terrible, but it felt very dull and linear. It didn't feel very elastic, and the color was a dull red or faded red color. The rubber also had a "dry"...
  10. Who has tried XVT ZLC blades?

    XVT brand has a number of ZLC blades. Who has tried them and how are they? How is the speed compared to other popular blades? I have read here and there that they blades are way stiffer and way harder than normal. Is that true? I have also heard that the supposed "zlc" is actually just...
  11. Is Fang Bo Carbon worth it?

    My main blades I have been using are the Yinhe V14 Pro and TB ZLC. Both are reasonably fast, but occasionally I feel I want more power. Is the Hurricane BO2 worth it? Some people have said its actually slower on most shots, and faster on the hard shots. People have said its faster on FH, and...

  14. What is it specifically that you like about Table Tennis?

    I played table tennis once a week for about 2 or 3 years as a teenager, then didn't really touch it for 20 years. I've only just gotten back into it for 6 months or so. I wanted to hear from everybody, what is it specifically that you like about Table Tennis? Things I like - I like the way the...
  15. Manufacturer speed ratings vs Revspin ratings

    I know a lot of people dont like revspin ratings, because they tend to be exaggerated. But generally, I tend to think revspin gives you the right DIRECTIONAL idea of speed. For example, if Clipper is 8.5, and Viscaria is 9.0, then generally revspin tends to be right about telling you Viscaria...
  16. Question about H3Neo

    When I first tried this rubber out of package, I hated it. People said it was factory boosted, but I felt no booster at all. It felt very dead, and the speed was abysmally low with the ball sticking to the topsheet. I started to enjoy the rubber more after adding a few layers of baby oil to the...
  17. What is the closest clone of Yasaka Ma Lin Extra Offensive?

    I just pulled out this blade from the closet, and I quite like it. I put Big Dipper and AK47 on it, and its quite fast, maybe a little faster than I expected for being All Wood. What is the best clone (maybe from Yinhe or Sanwei) that is close to its characteristics? I feel the blade is quite...
