Default Ukulele Off of ebay, keep or return?

Hello, I bought an ukulele from Southern Germany off of ebay. In the auction the seller said it was a showroom instrument, that it had one glue joint that had been adjusted by Martin in Germany and that the instrument was all gone through. I got it and found that there are hairline cracks in the top at three places. They are not all through as far as I can see. They run from the edge of the bottom to the bridge in two cases and one from the bridge to the sound hole.
What is there to expect from this?
Could I keep the instrument and bearing in mind that it might crack or should I request a refund from the seller and, if so, how much please?
Or should I just send it back to the seller, please?
Itīs a Martin T2K tenor koa ukulele. I donīt have any experience with koa since Before.
Best regards
