Pioneer DV-09 plays DVD's not CD's help

I Purchased a used Pioneer DV-09 via ebay that stated "tested with dvd and cd, plays both cd and dvd"
Not the case. 
It is a thing of hefty copper beauty, i love it.... but.... 
This unit plays dvd's perfectly fine, but as i'm sure yo can imagine, it was not purchased for it's dvd playing capability. This was to be my CD transport. 
I am working with the seller, and can probably return for refund at the cost of shipping unfortunately.
What I would rather do is find a solution. I have searched to the end of the internet I feel on this issue.
Does anyone have any input? I cannot even find a replacement laser for this model (assuming that is the issue). 
I appreciate any input.

Maybe cut my losses and give up my block-o-copper dreams.

Hi Zimmy709

I've owned the Pioneer DV-09 player and never had an issue playing CDs, SACDs etc. I put them into the player label up like any other player. Are you trying to play a CD-R? I only played regular CDs with it and never had a problem using it as a transport or just as a player.

good luck.
