If it was done on a good machine, no problem. The c/m ratio comes out pretty even anyway.How would you like to buy frames that people had been stringing 30-50lb differentials?

Yep TW used racquets are the best quality. You just have to know what to look for, when buying off the bay.I can find frames in great condition for a good price on the TW used racquet section, that is where I look first. I have not been disappointedf. Then I look in the classifieds here on the Forum. No issues.
It has been some time since I have bought new racquet.
my main reservation is that the integrity of the frame is a big unknown
It also depends on who you are buying from, not necessarily from an honesty point, but more from how hard does the seller hit a ball? I would not buy some D1 power conference male players racket they have been using for a year or 2. I would probably buy a racket from an over 50 player who is a racketholic who likes trying different rackets.
I’ve got several frames that are cracked right around the top and bottom of the throat, and they play fine.It’s bad business to sell a cracked frame and one should certainly not be sold one without knowing. But how unplayable are they? My father’s late 80s Kneissl cracked and we were still able to hit with it. We talking excessive string tension loss or what?

You're not playing pickle ball with these things?!?I’ve got several frames that are cracked right around the top and bottom of the throat, and they play fine.
It’s pretty funny. I saw a Pure Aero on the bay recently that said “good condition structurally sound” and had a big old crack at 10 o’clock, lolOr you could end up with something like this .... but hopefully not. I had to tell the client that I wouldn't string it after this one. I was afraid
of this totally exploding on the stringer. He played with this for another three months before breaking down and buy a couple of new sticks.
I wouldn't consider buying a used stick without seeing pics of both sides of the upper hoop area.

Anyone who exhibits that much thought in the stringing approach tends to keep the frame in pristine shape, ime.Anyone you are talking about on Talk Tennis...LOL
