Which specifoc lenses are included? This could be a great deal, or someone might be unloading garbage.

Personally, I have owned several different M bodies and the M3 was my least favorite by a wide margin. I would take an original M over the M3 every time.

EF-M 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM

Worth about $75 alone

EF-M 55-200mm f/4.5-6.3 IS STM

Worth about $200 alone

I think the lenses itself is worth the price of the bundle.

Nope.  The lenses are not worth that much.

Assuming everything is in good, working condition and a battery and charger are included, it is a decent deal.  You are saving roughly 15% over the going rate on eBay.

I'm not a professional photographer, I'm a hobbyist and something like this makes more sense to me as an affordable way to enter into apsc line.

Before this I've been researching a lot on something like the ZV-E10 and Ricoh GR III, but I ask myself "do I really want to spend that much money?"

It sounds like you have your heart set on a specific sensor size more than any specific capabilities.

What camera are you using right now?  What do you like about it and what do you dislike?   What do you find limiting with your current gear that you are hoping to improve upon?  Are there any types of photography that are a priority (wildlife, portraits, sports, landscapes, etc)?
