I just sent my recently bought second-hand Buffet (10 years old) and my old B&H (15 years old) in for repair. I expected a huge repair bill but the repairman said my Buffet was in excellent condition and the pads were only at half life and the B&H needed some work but the leather pads were still perfect (weren't they a good investment). The B&H clarinet is being played by one of my students and has had a lot of work over the 15 years and it still didn't require anything too major. In the end the repair bill was less than a third of what I expected it to be and both instruments play beautifully. Get a second opinion and then decide what you need done to your instrument.
