If game Dr. doesn't work then you can always call a local shop and ask if they resurface games.
The place i shop at charges like 2 or 3 bucks a game (CD is more likely) I wouldn't know the exact figures as i haven't needed it done and only asked once a few years back.
But picking up a game Dr. isn't a bad idea either.
Ahh while i was typing you had edited your post.
It will be cheaper to get them resurfaced than get replacements.
But buying your own repair thingy will probably be cheaper in the long run.
The restoration forum is a better place to look for an answer. Also, try using the search feature.

Check with any of your local Game Trader/GameXchange/Game*.* places and I'll bet if they can't resurface them for you, they can point you to someone who can.
