Does anybody know where you can buy "Crack" brand rubber?

I think there's a street in china where you drive slowly with a $10 bill and someone comes to your car and sells it to you.

in Guangdong la, but it sucks so much. Very very very hard I put it on Timo Boll Spirit and carbo 7.6 both give me absolutely no feel. No recommend to use that rubber although it says bulid-in power. About 35 RMB each.

Yeah, i'm pretty sure it's one of the cheaper makes. Like, I can get a lot of those non-globe varieties of 999, but they seem pretty old school Chinese. I can get one for less than $1 that looks like something the cat dragged in. Doesn't play too bad though.

LOL!!! But seriously I just want a website that shows the rubber. I'm not really interested in buying I'm just trying to find a place that actually sells this strange rubber brand.

Also... is it me or does the "Crack" logo on the rubber look like it's written just like "Coca-Cola" is? Coca-Cola used to have cocaine in it... I wonder if there is any relation, lol!?

Crack 999 has been around for a long while.

Forty-two years ago, I worked at a drug rehabilitation center in Columbus, Ohio. A "client" (read addict) who had been a fairly decent table tennis player sold me a couple of sheets of the stuff for two-fifty a sheet.  It seemed like a pretty good deal at the time. 

But when I opened up one of the sheets, Jezebel Vigilanties!  Contact high that lasted for weeks (not usually the case with crack).  Whoo!  Played like 2600 until the high wore off. 

When I came down, I played about as well as your normal crackhead and eventually became a client at the same drug rehabilitation center I used to work for.
