If the scratch is on the bottom; there are several places up on Broadway that can rebuff the CD and remove the scatch, or so they say. I can drop by on my way home tonight to check about price, just ping me to let me know if you're interested.

That's because Kevin S and Holle busted their asses making sure the set up was right. They went far beyond what was asked of them. and h...
