OK. So here is the back ground info. I had this gift certificate from like 3 years ago to a music store. So I finaly remember it when I go to the mall, and I buy a Bad Co. cd.

I get home and the thing is warped a little...just enough to hit the bottom on the cd player...So I bend it a bunch, and it plays fine.

So here I am three weeks later, and I decide to listen to Bad Co. Sure enough it bent back...As I rebend it I notice little cracks in the middle from my bending it.

Shit...

Now, here is the question. If I go buy a new one, then go out to my car, switch the cds in the cases, then bring it back and say "Look, its got cracks and it is warped a little, I want my money back"

Will it work?

Or am I going to be better off just copying it (it plays fine, just you can hear it scuff twice every time it goes around)?

Most places I've been to, have a policy that if its open, its a no-return. Worth a shot though, what is the worst that could happen. "No." Okay. Copy it first anyway.

I'm guessing that, at best, they'd just offer you a new copy.

Personally, I'd just copy it myself, chuck the warped one, and call it a day.

I think thats gunna be easiest....sucks tho...at least i didnt pay for it!

I'm not sure, but i think it's ok to just download it from a p2p program like kazaa and burn it. If you own the cd, it's just like making a backup. Why you wouldn't just burn cd's anyway, i dont know though.

I'd just go back and tell them it was defective. They should exchange it for another one.

I am without a reciept...and you know how that can be...

It's worth a try, I figure. After all, they'll just send it back to the manufacturer anyway, and it's clearly defective, yes?
