Was this a good deal? $200 for

nikkor 50mm 1.4
nikkor 105mm 2.5
nikkor 200mm 4

they are all old but in great condition. I know I won't use the 200mm much because of the light loss but other then that what do you think.
 
For 200 bucks that is a pretty good deal considering the 50 usually falls around 60 bucks and the 105 is around 75-80 alone. Just make sure there is no fungus or scratches in the lenses on both sides of the lens.
 
scratch and fungus free but I just noticed a finger print on the back element of the 105mm. I dont know if it was from me when i was inspecting them or from the previous owner. How would I go about removing it? Also what do I use to remove dust from the back and front of each lens?
 
I'm a huge fan of a blast of compressed air, followed by use of a lens pen. The charcoal impregnated tip does a great job with oil...like the fingerprint!
 
that lens pen looks great. I will have to pick up one of those. can you also clean the finger print with a lens cloth?
