What is the most cost effective option

I see a lot of original ones on eBay, but will they work on mine.

What would I need to know.

If you can find a 'Game' store still open they have been known to have a facility to polish discs to help restore them.

Worth a look anyway...

Try polishing the scratches out with Brasso or any similar metal polish. I have done this before with cd's and it has worked there is also a Perspex polish you can get to polish scratches out of caravan windows that would probably work
