Re the serotta, do be careful - the advice is always not to ride crash damaged frames unless you're sure they are safe - which isn't the same as them seeming safe. That's a fairly severe buckle and as mentioned tends to come from a head-on collision.
I find it dubious the seller wouldn't know if it were there before the sale, and if it did happen in transit (although you say it was well-packaged) then it's also the sellers job to ensure safe delivery, so I think this is one of the occasions to be quite harsh and demand full refund or cost of repairs at least.
