Good find, or worthless junk?

Hello gentlemen.

I'm new to the forum, so I apologise if it's impolite to start with a question.

I just picked this up on ebay, for no reason other than the fact that it was about to end and nobody had bid on it:

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110503399801&ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT#ht_500wt_1182

(Completed listing, so you may need to log in to view)

For any who can't see it, it's an Iraqi respirator, NBC kit and canister in a case from the first gulf war.

I don't collect Gulf war militaria, and in fact, I'm pretty new to collecting any militaria full stop, so I was just wondering if I was correct in thinking this was a steal at less than a fiver, and buying it regardless? Do many people collect this sort of stuff?

Not my field of collecting, but more than a steal IMHO.

The decon kit alone should fetch $20.00 US, so I think you did very well! Scott.
