Hi Haseeb,

I haven't experienced this so will let others help you out with some suggestions.

If you go to the bigger reputable sites you shouldn't have a problem.

Hi Haseeb. I purchase my rubbers either from a local reputable seller here in Australia or from Tabletennis11.com online (they have a physical shop in Paris but I'm yet to get there).  They are reputable and competitively priced.  I've not had a fake, poor quality or damaged item from them yet and they have pretty fast delivery too.  Cheers.

Hi Haseeb, may I know which country you're staying in?

You may get from TAOBAO, it's usually cheaper than in shop, but there is a risk of getting substandard equipment.

Haseeb, from where did you get the rubbers in Pakistan?

As someone has mentioned Tabletennis11.com, I am also considering buying table tennis stuff from there now onwards.

I'll suggest Taobao (China), IF you know the suppliers well. The prices are certainly cheaper, but risk getting substandard goods there. There are some that work very well and last very long (rubbers maintain tackiness for more than 6 months of consistent playing every week), some spoil on the first few hours of gameplay.
