IDK... for ~$300, you can get a new bat in the exact weight/size your DD likes. If these happen to be the exact brand/size/weight you DD is looking for, then great... If not, then spend your money on what your DD prefers... If your DD doesn't know what she likes, take her to a dealer to demo some bats. IMOHO

Those could potentially all be good bats, but they could also potentially be at a breaking point even though there are no visible breaks. Everyone of these I've seen break has broken where barrel meets handle and there were no warning signs. My guess is since these were used by a college player they have had a lot of use. If she was using -9 Xeno was probably a strong hitter and put a lot of hard hits on them. With the new 2017's out there are a lot of good deals on the 2016 (neon & purple). Quick search shows several places with new listed about $200, you would save some money and get a warranty. In theory a new bat is going to be as hot as one with a lot of swings with just a few break in swings.
