Is this a decent clutch kit?

So there's a clutch kit for sale on our local online classifieds (which is so popular, it basically renders craigslist useless in our area), for $75, brand new. But I'm having a hard time comparing it online as the ad isn't very descriptive with exactly what's in the kit and what the brands and models are. I can see from the kit it's a SECO clutch disc, and an Exedy clutch cover, but that's about all. I've texted the seller, but haven't heard back yet. I can't find the exact kit anywhere online. Anyone know if $75 is a good deal for this kit? I mean $75 is an ok price for just about any budget clutch kit, but I'm curious how much they go for retail. Here's the link to the ad:

The clutch in my escort isn't actually bad yet lol. I just browse the classifieds once in a while, and am considering purchasing this in anticipation of my clutch going out in the next year or two lol. I've had it for nearly 10 years with no clutch replacement, and I believe it is the original clutch.

The OEM clutch in my '94 was Daikin with 6 springs. Very high quality.
~180k miles it had as much meat on it as the new replacement.

Cheaper 4-spring clutches bounce and resonate more easily.

Thanks. I've noticed the last few weeks on really cold mornings before it's warmed upthat iit's been bouncing or shuddering a bit.
