Default 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)
