I'd ask for a partial refund and fix it myself or a full refund and return it altogether.

I don't see why experienced members here wouldn't pay more than $25 for it though. Granted I can't verify the severity of the chips but honing chips out aren't that serious. It's quite easy actually, if you're using the proper technique and equipment. You could buy that razor, hone out the chips, use the razor for a month, and sell it for at least $100 on eBay if you didn't like it.
At least $100 on the bay with no chips and the box if it is near mint
