Just bought this t28 roller bearing turbo second hand for my punto

once it arrived this morning i checked to see if there was any play in the shaft, there is no play back and fore but up and down there is around 2mm of play.
I gave turbo dynamics a ring and they advised me that as its got a roller bearing if no oil has run through it for some time then there will be play in the shaft (up and down) until i fit it and run oil through it
the guy i bought it off has said that it was off the car for around 2 months but has only covered about 200 miles, due to him getting different turbo
can any of the experts tell anything more around the turbo, about the blades etc?
Opinions please lads...
