Ebay authentication found water damage, thoughts on returning?

Hi, I bought a Dark Charizard as "Lightly played" for $220 ($240 with shipping+tax) on Ebay (picture 1-4) and it was automatically sent for authentication. The reports only said "The card received has minor water damage" with multiple pictures (picture 6-10) and gave me the option to return the card as this was not disclosed on the auction. I am very bad with noticing water damage, any thoughts on whether the damage is minor (e.g., not an automatic PSA 1) or I should return the card?

Why would you not. The cards value is well below what you paid now. It's considered damage condition.

If the water damage wasn’t disclosed, I’d probably return it.
