just my 2 cent..
if ebay selling 3 ballscrew for 100, about 35 each, then it just doesn't wort to fixing at all..
balls are hardened while screw is not.. I mean rolled screws are not hardened..
when it is worn all help could be regrinding what is way more cost..

while these screws are new they have use to be 0.02mm backlash.. (0.001 in)
