Removing Scratches From Gameboy Color Screen?
I got a Pikachu edition gbc in the mail earlier today and the screen cover has a good bit of scratching on it. I would simply replace it, but I don't want to remove the special edition pokemon pictures. Any way to buff the scratches out? The only thing I've found on google so far is the toothpaste method and I was hoping to try something else.

Aw, never mind. I just tried playing it for the first time and the sound doesn't even work. It was listed as "perfect condition" on ebay, so I'm contacting the seller to complain. >__<

Did you try plugging in a pair of headphones? If the sound works with headphones sometimes the little pin that enables sound to the headphone port gets stuck and disables the internal speaker even when the headphones are disconnected.Originally Posted by Bubble_Man

Yeah, I gave that a try. With the headphones, I can barely hear the music if I max the volume out.
Sounds like a capacitor problem or a bad solder point, I know the more technical people here could assist with that or have some more suggestions.

Ive had a few 'excellent' condition items arrive only half working or in much sorrier state than advertised.
If I think its fixable i usually complain to seller and try to get a partial refund then fix it myself.
Often more worthwhile than shipping it back for refund end ending up losing money from back and forth shipping.
