I have a pure gold choke that has some scratches insife of it and also appears to have little dings around the ports ive heard the scratches will not effect patterns but will the little dings hurt?
NO It's fine. Did you buy it new or used?
Used
HTL shot can scratch the interior of a choke, and put dings in the wad stopper rings. Truthfully, I've noticed my chokes shoot better the more you shoot them... especially with HTL.

This.
You might want to contact the auction seller and let him know he failed to disclose that the item was damaged

If it shoots good shoot it ! TSS will especially do this to a choke. As stated earlier, most chokes seem to shoot better the more they are shot.
