A few weeks ago I bought a used copy of Final Fantasy IX. I have since discovered that the second disc is so badly worn that some parts of the game don’t work. Getting through the game is practically impossible when you can’t use potions or certain moves during battle.

So, anyone out there willing to lend a copy of FFIX? I don’t have enough money to buy another copy, even a used one. I promise I’ll take good care of it and send it back when I’m done.

I don’t have Final Fantasy IX, but it strikes me that some kind of Doper Media Exchange service would be nice to have for lots of things. Good luck in your quest.

Sorry…I played I and II, and then took a short break until FFX. Otherwise, I’d be happy to send it along…

I have a copy that I can lend to you. My e-mail address is in my profile.
