Question Leather problems

I am looking at an Eddie Bauer X with the two-tone leather seating and found that the passanger front seat has a cut in the seat base leather and has one small spot that seems discolored. What is the best way to fix something like this, as I said I am looking to buy this so I want to know ahead of time what it is going to cost to repair these things. Any help or suggestions would be a plus.
Thanks!

I had a friend of a friend that did leather repair, i wa gonna have him do a seat bolster repair and he told me something like a hundred bux give or take. Its a very cheap repair im surprised the dealer didnt do it. (if its at a dealer lot) Just try to find someone with a ocuple years of experience in this sort of work and youll never know there was a problem.

I bought a 04 F350 that had a hole in the driver seat. I asked the dealer to replace it and he did. The truck had custom bumpers on it before it was traded and was returned to stock. They replaced several wiring harness and the receiver hitch. I was quiet pleased with my dealers service. This was all after papers were signed so it wasnt added onto the price.
