Agree
The condensation is normally representative of argon gas being released from the pane. So definitely an insulation issue...not just cosmetic. See if the seller will meet you in the middle on replacement....small moral victory. If not, I agree with earlier post, on the overall purchase (assuming everything else is on the level), I wouldn’t walk away from the deal for a few hundred dollar fix
