I have a black label Final Fantasy Tactics that I want to sell on ebay. The jewell case and instructions are in great condition, but the disc has a large scratch on the back.

I know you can have the disc resurfaced, but I don't know where to get it done.

I'm in the United States and was hoping some chain store could do it for $2 or so. I could send it off somewhere, but as I am looking to resell it and not keep it for my collection—this doesn't seem to be the most effective solution.

Wait, do you mean a scratch on the black side, or on the artwork side? If the artwork side is damaged then it may not be usable anymore.

... Again, BLACK SIDE or ART SIDE? You say "backside" and it makes me think of the artwork.

Call any local DVD rental stores, many have buffing machines and they charge a couple of bucks per disc.

Most all of the video rental places have the machines Gamecrazy has. I know here, Family video and Hollywood Video do, and I've seen them in every Blockbuster I've been to. Usually its about $1-$2, or you can buy a 10 disc card for around $5

yes, thats the stuff.

It kicks severe ass and can make the most cracked out game look new.
