Looking for advice from anyone willing to offer it.

I am looking to add some shells to my collection as I dont have any. I am still learning about all the types and values. I found an individual offering to sell me these shells for 200 each? Should I jump on any of them? I know one is an Amsterdam and one looks like a Bormann, but that's all I know. Anything advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

Its hard to say based on one photo. The 3 solid shots aren't worth $200 and is that a 12lb CS 3rd from the left? The boreman has no fuse. Also need a photo of the top of the Amsterdam and the other. Missing fuse's are a big deal as the fuse can bring more that the shells in many cases.

Thank you. Yeah I noticed there were no fuses, but I wasn't sure how much that affected the value for each? Not sure if that one to the left of the Amsterdam is CS or not. If it was, I'd jump on that one for sure.
