Buying Used, Would This Be An Issue?

[Braydenc12]

Hey everyone! I currently own a 2017 GTI SE 130. My girlfriend is now wanting one as well. We saw a 2018 GTI SE 130 with a trailer for $9,500. It has around 15 hours on it and runs perfectly. But the bottom of the hull has some scratches/chip in it. Here are some pictures... What do y’all think? Would this be a issue??

For some reason I can’t load the pictures.

Typically scratches and chips aren’t s concern as long as it’s just the color and not into the fiberglass.

If this is the plastic poly-tech hull I would stay away from anything with bottom damage as it can’t be repaired.

Pictures just popped up.
The first and second are not an issue at all and the decal could just be replaced.

The bottom ones look cosmetic also and could be wet sanded and buffed to make them less visible. As long as this is a fiberglass hull I wouldn’t be concerned.

Ask the dealer to knock another $250 off and have a professional detailer buff the bottom.

I wouldn't worry about it, as long as it's a fiberglass hull.

I am not familiar with any other hull materials to give you any advice there.
