Cracked wheel repair question

I have the opportunity to pick up a set of Kosei K1 wheels at a great price. The only downfall is one of the wheels was cracked at one point on the inside edge. It has now been repaired.
I'd like others input, is this something I should avoid or are repairs like this OK in the longterm?

Thanks,
Todd

There is good reason they are a great price. If you can afford to buy wheels in better condition I would greatly suggest holding off on the purchased of the "repaired" wheels.
