They are good lenses...In the States the most common brand name used for them is Rokinon and many people swear by them. Unlike the Zeiss 85mm f1.4 Planar T* they can be used wide open without CA or coma problems.

For that price you could get a used Canon FD 85mm f1.2 L or FD 85mm f1.2 S.S.C aspherical. And there are'nt any 85mm lenses better than them.
