From the low-budget Disc Doctor products to the higher end professional re-buffing machines at stores, are there any downsides to using them to get rid of heavily scratched discs?
I ask, because I just got a disc from an Amazon seller with a fair amount of scratches and a sticker on the front. Now he says he'll take it back and re-buff it at a local store for $3 which he does with everything he sells, but somehow missed this disc, and remove the sticker. Or I can get a refund. Since this is fairly rare, I might be better off just having him send it back when he removes the sticker/scratches as opposed to a refund, but I wonder if there are any downsides to it.
EDIT: He's paying the $3 to re-buff it, not me.
