Am I hearing OP purchased what he thought was an undamaged guitar and the seller - - - before shipping it, says, oops, these cracks just now appeared? I humbly suggest that OP cancel the sale and keep looking. The risk of a devalued guitar are being transferred to the buyer. Nah. Sounds like this guitar is a one-of-a-kind instrument which is hard to appraise anyway. With damage, not for me. The guitar is already in ambiguous shape, perhaps it was made during a humid summer and further drying adventures await. OP looks to be located in the tropics of New Mexico. Humidity problems ain't going away.
