Any information on Focal 135mm f2.8 or Ritzcam 80-200 f/3.9

I bought a set of lens and cameras on ebay to get the 50mm f/1.7 pentax lens (believe me, it is cheaper than buy it alone) and the set came with these two lens (focal 135 2.8 and Ritzcam 80-200 3.9). I have only used them for a short time but I have not experience/knowledge to know how they are compare to others. In my hands, they dont seem to be very sharp wide open so the question is; can anybody give some information about these lens in order to get the best of them.

Thank you in advance

Hmm...I got a Focal MC 135/2.8 in a package with a Sigma 60-200 a while back (I think I paid about $9 plus shipping for both...or maybe it was $9 each, I forget...). Already had a 135 I was happy with so never ran any photos through it though, sorry. Mine has a nifty little built in lens hood, but the build doesn't feel nearly as solid or polished as the (believe it or not) Sears 135/2.8 that I already had.

I am not surprise on what you paid for them, I was thinking in getting rid of them but I wanna give them a chance first.
