Minidisc walkman issue

Hi chaps
just bought a cheapy player from ebay as a beater
and long story short - I put one of the discs the seller supplied into the unit - now the unit will not physically eject the disc
the disc looked a little shonky when I put it in - so I think maybe it is physically stuck - ie it doesn't present itself properly when you open the device
the unit is a SONY RZ M70 (don't ask)
anyway - if i can't get it out -any tips on how to fish it out without getting a crowbar out?
do I have a case for asking for a refund - seeing as both player and disc are now as useful as a bookend?
only 20 bucks - but principle an all that

Have you tried gently banging the unit against the palm of your hand whilst attempting to eject the disc? Sounds mad I know but it might afford enough movement to initiate disc movement...
As for the potential refund, because you used the disc the seller supplied you may have a case. I'd suggest making sure you mention this was the only disc you tried (meaning your discs cannot be blamed, assuming that's what happened!)

oh it's exactly what happened
I tried it in the car at the post office after I picked it up
