Old SNES Games

Yeah...so I bought a couple of SNES games off a fellow temper and have some problems with them.

Problem 1: They have to be blown into before I put them in the console, hell even if they've been sitting in the console I have to take them out blow into them. This is frustrating though as far as I know it can be fixed with Rubbing Alcohol. Any Brits know an easy place I can get this?

Problem 2: One of them keeps freezing randomly, this is also the one which is worst for contact issues. Is this caused by bad contacts or just a dying cart? It looks like its been through the wars a bit and was sent in an unpadded envelope.

Just want a 2nd opinion before I start berating him for a partial refund.

My sisters DS were bought used and they both had horrible accidents...one is broken in half at the hinges and the other one the bottom screen died :P I have to fix them but I need the parts and my triwing...so the two girls are using my DS under supervision right now >_<
 
I've just had this issue with contacts on a PS2 Memory Card. You probably don't have any but i used an Alcotip Swab to clean them.
