Sivy Posted September 18, 2002 Share Posted September 18, 2002 yes, buy another one, swap the cd then take it back saying someone bought it for you as a present but you have it already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sivy Posted September 18, 2002 Share Posted September 18, 2002 Originally posted by gorganfloss lol nice solution SivyB. it works too, done it a couple of times, once when a friend borrowed a dvd and it came back with a big scratch in it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GonkH8er Posted September 18, 2002 Share Posted September 18, 2002 if youve got yourn receipt, take it back. he honest with them.... say its munted.... they should replace it if its not all scratched and stuff honesty usually works, especially at eb. otherwise, find someone else with it... and see if theirs works. if not, then it may be your system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dath Maximus Posted September 18, 2002 Share Posted September 18, 2002 that happened to me the other day. i took the cd out, whiped the bottom off, and blew some dust off the cd tray. works now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kurgan Posted September 18, 2002 Share Posted September 18, 2002 I hate to say it, but other than blowing on your disc tray, cleaning the disc is probably the cheapest and easiest solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NerfYoda Posted September 18, 2002 Share Posted September 18, 2002 Check the CD for marks/scratches. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Talliusc Posted September 18, 2002 Author Share Posted September 18, 2002 its got a few scratches. thats probably the problem. sigh. well i dont know where you come from but the EB near me is full of dishonest %^#%^#@^ers. when i bought smash bros melee for GC the guy told me i didnt even need a receipt to return it. when i came back they wouldnt exchange it because i didnt have a receipt. i asked "what? the other guy said you had it in your computer filing system". they screwed over several of my friends as well. well so as to NOT turn this into an EB thrashing thread. i dont actually know anybody who still has their JO cd. (most sold it and bought wc3 which i also play). guess ill just wait till the pricedrops to under 50$ and buy another copy. thanks anyways all.
