It probably wont effect the sound all that much, but its hard to tell if it is structurally sound. As far as fixing it, it would be probably pretty pricey, and you might have to put on a new back on.

i wouldnt buy that

it would be probobly so expensive to fix that, not worth it at all.

its obvious that the previous owner didnt' take the best care of it too, so you dont know what quality the neck is in either, or anything

I think a good takamine, washburn, or seagull could be found at a store for that price and it would be much better than this questionable guitar.

1. Guitars being sold on ebay are shady

2. Broken guitars being sold on ebay are even shadier.

That's not true. It's pretty damn easy to tell who's legit and who isn't. Although I would prefer to buy from a shop.
