Highend Players and Skipping CDs


Are Highend CD players more likely to skip on CDs that cheeper players will play fine or is it the other way around? I have noticed that alot of my mildly scrached CDs have been skipping alot more now with a higher end player. The player is from 2000, but in good condition. I had it professionally cleaned. It does alot better, but it does skip on CDs my cheep mini system will play.

Now the player has started jumping forward in the track along with momentary skips. It also makes a static sound when it jumps.Is this what happens when the lazer goes out?
Thanks, The player is a Talk Electronics Thunder 1. I am the second owner and I have no idea who does service in the US (It is an English company). Is this somthing I could take to a local stereo tech? Or is this a send to the factory only job?
