The recliner that came in my coach also had a large grease stain on the back cushion from the owners head & hair. Luckily I only have to watch the oils on my head.
The only way to determine wear is to see the coach in person. Also any of these type of concerns are easily corrected, relatively cheaply. In a 13-14 year old coach I am much more interested in the overall condition & maintenance given to the chassis, engine, trans, water worthiness etc that can REALLY cost you money down the road. One also must consider that some wear & tear is expected when you are looking at a coach that sold originally for around a million dollars and now you want to purchase it in the 170K range. These are strictly my opinions.
