not saying other balls dont have issues. this is from personal experience with these penns
I don't know if a little cloud of luck is following me, or if the Costco balls have more stringent QC, but I have never had dead balls. Now, Penn balls are less bouncy on cool days and have less consistent bounce from ball to ball; that's just what you get with cheap balls. Never seen balls lose bounce in less than a couple hours, either.
One thing that might get away from people is, how the balls "feel" can be very different on different days. Some days the balls are lively, soft, and bouncy. Other days they feel like rocks and don't even want to go past the service line. The chances are, it's not just balls, it's probably strings, air density, moisture, and the condition of your muscles that contributes to it.
As far as the complaints go, I go through around a hundred of these cans a year and probably only get 4 or 5 dead cans. It happens, but I'm also not willing to pay $8/can for balls I'm only going to use once. I just always carry a couple of cans with me to the court in case.
Just put your money where your mouth is.
I am sure the opponent won't mind.

Then come home and wash them in the washing machine or a bin. Just don't spin them.
Pressureless balls are terrible for all parts of the arm.
Stick with good balls for practice until they become dead.
Use a corny keg (set at 25psi) or ball saver to help maintain the pressure in them if the felt is good.
In other countries, balls are expensive.
