I'm not sure how it translates into US dollars, but if each dollar in your currency is considerably less than a US dollar, probably pretty good. If that's equal or close to $420 USD, then that's too pricey for that stuff used.

OP
It takes about 89 US cents to make 1 euro.
So the cost in dollars is about 374.
