Help me find a good table tennis setup please

Hi I am a table tennis amateur that needs help making a custom blade. I had my first table tennis racket a few months ago, but it was a premade and it's not bad but I would also want something with more quality. My budget is 50$/€ . So far I came up with a Stuor long 5 as a blade, 729 friendship aurora max forehand and 729 friendship pro dragon f backhand. I reached out to AliExpress because that's the only shop I know, feel free to access any other table tennis shop that delivers in Europe, Romania.
Thank you very much .👍🏻 😊

I have never used any of your choices there but for under $50 Chinese rubbers are probably your best bet.
The Sanwei Fextra 5 ply Blade has been recommended many times in here so may be worth looking at. Regarding rubbers I have used Yinhes Big Dipper and Yinhe Jupiter Asia 3 (the softb 38 sponge versions) on FH and like them and also the Yinhe Moon 12 for BH. They are fairly typical Chinese rubbers that may suit your level?
Anyway, those should come in at APPX $50 on Ali Express and you can read some reviews to see if you think they'd suit your style.
For Euro shop in your region check out tt-store.eu. if you email Bedo there he will help you out. I have no affiliation with them other than 5 or 6 purchases in the past few yrs and have always found them great.
Cheers

Thanks a lot I had the sanwei fextra 5 on my list and also saw a recent post about the yinhe moon 12 beeing really good quality. Also the bid dipper and Jupiter Asia 3 were good finds. Any recommendations for backhand tho. My major problem when I play is the serve receive so please something not to tecky and spiny.
Thank you

I was recommending the Moon 12 for Backhand but it is sensitive to incoming spin, as are almost all Chinese rubbers.
If I were advising a new player I would say go with this and just focus on learning to counter and control incoming spin. Especially if you like to attack I think it's the best approach but others will have other advice in this regard.
There are rubbers that are less sensitive to incoming spin but I don't know of any cheaper Chinese ones, do email tt-store.eu tho and they'll tell you what they have.
But also hang around and see what other advice you get in here, there must be some on AliExpress that could fit the bill.
There is always the option of playing anti spin or pips rubber but that is really a choice regarding playing style that may be better to make at a later stage.
What is your current playing style?

So my current table tennis racket is a DHS 9002 premade with a DHS hurricane 3 on forehand and a hurricane 8 on backhand and it's paired with a 5+2 ply alc carbon. My friend has a serve with loads of sidespin and speed that when I put my backhand side it jumps out of the table. When I try to counter the spin and put some more into it, I receive it and it also jumps out of my racket . My playstyle it differs who am I playing against. By example when I play that friend that puts a lot more spin on the ball I try to play as aggressive I can so he is forced to play with less spin. When I play others, that don't put such spin on the ball I take my time to find the proper attack.
