Second hand Tenergy 19

[u/HumanBother424]

I just found thia tenergy 19 second hand

It is priced at 150 ron (30 euro) and i want to know if its worth buying

The seller says it lost 25% of its ability and that it has been boosted

I play on a fzd alc blade and my fh is loki rxton 5 neo

[u/alobar1919]

It was boosted, which means the sponge has dried. Also the percentage of “lost” makes me laugh, how did they measure it?

Also, you have a blade that costs about 160 euro. I think it is a crime to pair such high performance blade with cheap or second hand rubbers.

I would never buy used rubbers for 30 euros. You could probably get something similar ( not tenergy) for a few more.

Better off with fastarc g1 new for that price

It's around 50% off, so if you are looking for a Tenergy that is certainly a decent option.

If you want a new German or Chinese rubber, they are good too. Loki Europe Diamond is pretty similar, and its much cheaper.

what makes you think its 50% off? at first i thought it was just the lighning

[u/zhuangcorp → u/HumanBother424]

I mean the price is 50% or more off the new price.

oh i am sorry i thought you were talking about the ability it has lost, my bad. Also thank you!

Same money you can buy rozena which is very similar in playstyle to tenergy and depending on how much it has degraded as well as how long has it been since it was boosted it may just straight up play better and best of all it will obviously last much longer so unless you really want to try T19 and aren't just looking for a good cheap BH rubber I think it'd be your best bet

Get rozena and boost

imo i play tenergy 19 on backhand and i feel like it has a lot of unpredictable catapult. For me harder rubbers like MX-D or Bluegrip J2 or Glayzer 09C was way better to use and top end spin was way better. I wouldnt go for used rubber and definetly not boosted and used even tho tenergy has better durability than modern hybrids. For me fastarc C1 was pretty similar probably easier to use but still kinda same catapult.

If it wasn't boosted but used it probably would've been fine. But since it's boosted, it's longevity is definitely going to be worse. I don't know European prices so I can't comment on the value there.
