Contarex set up

I am considering purchasing the following for 500.00. A contarex body bull's-eye with the following lens: Zeiss 1:2 50mm?, Zeiss sonnar 1:4 135mm and a Zeiss distagon 1:4 35mm. All in like new condition. Would this make a good investment?


 

If they are all in good condition and functional, that is a very good price (if it is in USD or EUR) or a reasonable one (if it is in GBP).
I bought this set (along with an 85mm f2) but separately - my purchase was not for investment, but for use. And from that perspective, they were a superb buy. Outstanding engineering and optics that belie their age. Some of my favorite gear for film (and for digital - adapting the lenses to digital bodies).
