I want to buy a bat.
I have looked into it a bit, and I was wondering if I should get a Butterfly Timo Boll ($30) or a Schildkrot Waldner ($30)?

Butterfly Timo Boll - 
Schildkrot Waldner (comes with dvd/cd)
So which bat should I get? The stores I am getting them at they are both $30, and the stores are across the road from each other (one of them is rebel sports).
They are both around 2mm thickness. I always thought butterflys were good except the yellow in this one seems cheap?
On Ebay, the butterfly is $20 and the Schildkrot Waldner is $45 which kind of confuses me because they are the same price in the store, so which one?
Thank you so much :D

Hi Macrya,

Both these bats will only last you a little while. The important thing with these bats is the quality of the rubber.  You will find that the rubber will wear very quickly on both of these. 

There is very little difference between these. Choose the one that feels the most comfortable.

We would recommend the  PingSkills Rook.
