The nice fellow did include it into a package (besides 2 other lenses) without asking. :-)

What brand? Samyang? And on what camera/mount?
It would be fun to see how such a lens performs in today's digital photography landscape for sure!

Well, it's a "Walimex" mirror but I reckon it could be a Samyang under the hood. There're a couple of Walimex lenses made by Samyang.

Well, if you've got the time .... I personally don't expect anything
spectacular from it.

for shure a defy...
as those lenses are sold at a price of a good tele-converter,

Well, it's way beyond normal testing parameter. We can provide reliable tests till 400-500mm maximum. Beyond it's a gamble.
