Purchased a used TB0356 (Garrett T3) but have an Issue with it

I purchased this from Spooledmotorsports (great people), but when I inspected the turbo today, it has a crack extending from the area where the flapper would be over to the turbine wheel housing.. Now Ive seen hairline cracks before on the turbine housing by the flapper before but never saw them reach towards the wheel. What do you think I should do?? I have a 30 day warranty on this turbo, where all I would have to do is send it back to them (25 bucks shipping)

If they are any good they would ship you a new one and cover shipping.

I don't think they are going to cover shipping, I can try...But you think I should just get another one then

The one I have isn't useable?

Why shouldn't they? They sent you a shitty turbo that you didn't even install yet and it's all ready fucked up.

I agree! I would send them pics and request another turbo with a prepaid return box for you to ship back that shitty
one. If they didn't help you out I would get paypal involved and make them stick by their product and warranty...
