Yeah the metal has split apart at the rear of the seatbolt hole. I believe as a result the bolt doesn't clamp the post properly.
My guess as to what caused it is that the seatpost was positioned too high (the post it came with is very short) and the force has forced the metal apart.
from the way he has responded I'm pretty sure he knew about it

is the crack inside the seatpost bolt hole as i seem to remember from the pic? tbh, it could be an honest mistake then. or am i wrong bout the position?
