 This is only my opinion , Spence , but the cracks you are referring to should be ringing  alarm bells in my humble opinion . You could be getting a pig in a poke , and an expensive one at that . Walk away is my advice . You need to see it , and you can't .

Be careful if using rust remover on cracks it can penetrate below and lift off more of the enamel.

Yeah, looks like it might have been dump-dug, if the seller had included returns accepted then would have been worth a punt.
