To trade or not to trade rubber

coach

how do u figure out if the rubber is still good before buying a second hand rubber?

what are the key factors that i need to watch out for?

thx coach :)

and i want your opinion on this trade:

i traded my new ritc 802 short pips for a 2nd hand donic coppa jo platin soft with scratched rubber at the end but still grippy

was it a good trade or did i made a mistake?

thx again coach

Hi Amekun,

It sounds like a reasonable trade.  The main thing to watch for is that the rubber still has grip on it.  YOu can do this by rubbing your finger across the surface.
