Is the bid for business class worth it?

We are flying SYD to Ayers Rock next week. We're in coach "with extra leg room" in row 14. We received an email suggesting we "bid" for upgrade to business for about $AU 500 each.
That seems pricey, but I don't know what kind of plane it is: the web site says 73H. It would be tempting to use the lounge after our long flight from SFO, which arrives at about 6:30am. Flight to Ayers Rock leaves at 10:30am .

Anyone know if this is a good deal for a three hour flight? Will the offer change as it gets closer to departure?
Thanks
