The original kit lens isn't worth that much, I don't know about the Sigmas. Personally, I wouldn't touch the 100-300mm, repair costs can be very high.
Personally I'd pass unless they are giving it away!

Lots of film bodies, a couple of digital ones, too many lenses (mainly older glass) and a Horseman LE 5x4.

I'd say the only item of any real interest in that list is
70-300MM F4-5.6 DG MACRO SIGMA PENTAX, -BOX, HOOD,REAR CAP, UV FILTER
presumably not the APO version as they don't say it is, so not fantastic but if it's going cheap might be worth it.
If the whole lot is going really cheap and you haven't got a 70-300 then go for it for the undamaged Sigma, if the lot goes above about £40 then pass.
