Avoid any inexpensive rebuilds from a major parts chain.
OEM are best.
Raxles are great if they make one that fits a Sentra.
If it’s just a boot problem, I would much rather reboot an OEM than install a cheap rebuild.

Get the regular Trakmotive or GSP axles for your Sentra. None of the good ones are available for your car 
Nissan Value Advantage aka Value Disadvantage is just a reboxed aftermarket axle at double the price

It's a ~20 year old Nissan Sentra. Regular NEW axles from their local auto parts store will be fine.go here

My thoughts exactly. My sons first car was a Subaru with like 250k miles. I got a $10 cv axle on Amazon when it needed one. Lasted until the car died a year or so later. No point throwing big money at something not worth it.
Swapping a CV shaft out is a 45 minute job so if it doesn't last 100k miles, it isn't the end of the world. Us regular DIY guys need to realize that what the pro's care about most is avoiding come backs. Parts that have a 7% premature failure rate are a valid reason for them to freak out, but shade tree guys like me may not care so much. I don't like junky parts, but on an old vehicle sometimes it's not worth it to pay 2x for OEM when the car isn't going to be on the road all that long anyway.

I’d see if I could find two reasonable quality OE ones and send them to CVJ in a Colorado.
If the axle can be saved, get a boot kit from Nissan. Else, pick a chineseium axle from your favorite parts box for the warranty and call it done.
