    Are those the pics from the Auction?
    If those were, then the condition is absolutely misrepresented.
    The corrosion is ridiculous, and you can definitely file a claim and get your money back.
    The seller may have listed as no returns accepted but that will not save them from selling junk to people.
    I have gotten my money back for less damagae than that.

    You're sure it needs sharpening?

    Regrinding would be good for it, I'm sure it can be saved but it's lots of work.

    Looks to have been taken to a grinder already,
    if that is the case it may not even be able to take enough of an edge for honing practice.

    You do have the power of a bad feedback rating, most sellers don't like their rating to drop.
