Seems like the coins are all lower grades. Although I only purchase US coins and don't really know if the US vs Canada coins cost comparisons, I think you could do better. Would you be buying them as an investment, or strictly to collect?

I think it is a good deal, but exactly how good hinges on the 1858.

Without looking at the obverse,you have to rely on the seller grading skills.Assuming he is right,the asking price is very close to Trend which is in my opinion high for this album.Unless you find a variety for the 1859,you will pay 40% too much.I would offer no more than $75 for these.

It is an excellent deal on the collection. Really, the 1858 makes the entire set worth it.

You would be buying a pig in a poke - not enough pictures of the coins to rate that kind of money. I agree $75 is a more than fair offer.

Asking price is too much. Compare it to this, from the June 2012 Coin Expo auction:
