I have two sheets of used Joola Express One, one red sheet and one black sheet. They are maximum thickness. The rubbers were used about two weeks before I switch to Tenergy.
The sheets are overall in very good shape. The black sheet has a small bit of crumbling at the end at about the 1:00 position, due to bumping the edge on the table. Both sheets are clean from glue -- I used water-based glue and it removed very easily. They are cut to fit a Butterfly Kong Linghui paddle, which means they should fit similar paddles such as Timo Boll Spirit and Iolite. I did not use any booster or anything on the rubber, just water-based glue.
I can think of three good reasons why you would buy used sheets of rubber: first, you might not be able to afford new rubber. Second, you might want to just test the rubber (which is what I did) and you don't like the idea of spending a lot of money on a test. Third, you might already use Express One and you want to pick up a couple of sheets cheap as a backup.
Just to give you my impression of Express One (sort of a mini-review): I foud the rubber to be very fast with medium spin. It's faster, for example, than Tenergy but not as spiny. The top sheet is not tacky at all, which I had trouble with because I used to play mostly with tacky top sheets. It had excellent control. Even though my loops were very fast, I had no trouble landing the ball consistently. The main reason I didn't like the rubber is I wanted more spin, which I now get from Tenergy 05. Also, Express One is a European-made tensor rubber, which means that -- like all European-made tensors -- it won't last all that long (by comparison, Tenergy lasts a long time).
Most American mail order places offer Express One at $44/sheet, but Dandoy is cheaper. I'm offering the two sheets for $40 + shipping. So that's about half-price. If you are interested, please contact me at [email protected].
