How “used” is a recycled golf ball?

I’ve seen some sales on recycled golf balls, and a hell of a lot cheaper than they would be new.
How different is a recycled golf ball to a brand new golf ball? does it really matter between brand new or recycled?
are there certain grades of recycled balls?
also, i noticed that after using a new golf ball after several shots or holes, they seem to get a much…softer feel. to be honest, i hate soft feeling golf balls and prefer the hard and rigid type of golf ball. (thats what she said)
Will recycled balls lack this hardness feeling?

A recycled ball is one that’s been fished out of a lake, pond, creek, etc. or just found of the grounds of a golf course. Some could be in very good shape, no one knows how many times they’ve been hit. The ones found in water are not necessarily bad either. Some people think that is bad that they’ve sat in the water. Maybe not good for a pro, but I think all of us recreational golfers are always looking for ways to save money. A golf ball has a hard shell on it, it’s not a baseball or football, and it has no seams, so think about it. You can get 5 dozen recycled balls for about $27.
