Is it worth buying a used Paddletek paddle?

Yes, if you know its condition. A used Paddletek costs less than new, and the risk with any secondhand paddle is wear you cannot see in a photo. Every one here has been through the checks above, and the grade next to the price tells you how it came out.

What condition are your used Paddletek paddles in?

Every paddle is graded Mint, Like New or Excellent against a published twelve point inspection before it is listed, and the grade it earns is the one on the listing next to the price. Anything below the floor never reaches the shop.

Can I trade in my Paddletek paddle?

Yes. Tell us what you have and a person comes back within 24 hours with an offer in RePaddle store credit. We take Paddletek along with every other major brand, and we reserve the right to decline any paddle.

Used Paddletek paddles

A quieter, more conservative builder than most of the field, and one of the few still manufacturing in the US. Tempest is the control line that a lot of 4.0 and up players never leave. Build quality is consistently high and the handles are unusually well finished, which matters more than it sounds when you are buying secondhand.

Before you buy

What to check on a used Paddletek

Paddletek cores hold up well, so the usual fault on a used one is a tired grip rather than a dead paddle, and a grip is the cheapest thing on it to replace. Listen for a rattle when you tap the face: on older Bantam units that is the giveaway for core separation, and it is a decline here, not a discount. Tempest faces go smooth with heavy use and that is not recoverable.

We run that check on every unit before it is listed, and the result is the grade on the card. Lines we see most from Paddletek: Bantam, TKO, Tempest.
