Although some ARE really unsaveable, if you clean the ball and the axis
rotators (which may require a little careful scraping from gunk buildup)
they might still be useable. Replacing the slider material can be done in a
multitude of ways. Some use the fuzzy half of velcro. You can also
custom-cut plastic pieces and glue them in.
If you have the time, and little funds, it's a worthy endeavour.
