rapair to a composite wheel, is it possible?

I found this on ebay: https://cgi.ebay.ca/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?...m=320268618222
It's a spin trispoke composite wheel the seller says it needs repair, that it needs a new aluminium rim, and I was wondering if it was actually possible for this to repaired? I've heard that composite wheels generally can't be rapaired. And if it is possible, would it be at all worthwhile? how much do you think it would cost? I'm trying to decide weather I should buy it or not.
