I have found a 12 yr old Hancock and Moore leather section that someone is selling for $1000 (originally over $10,000). There is considerable fading in some places. It is a unprotected class 5 leather (top of the line). According to the original owner it was condition about every 6 months. Is this a good deal? What do I need to look for or be worried about before I purchase? I've read that a good leather recoloring kit could help bring back the color. Also that H&M will repair leather for the cost of the material and shipping. Would I be better off buying a new, lower quality sectional or buying this 12 yr old Hancock and Moore?
