3 die / neck die question

When buying a set of dies is it worth buying a 3 die set with a neck die, such as Redding if a person is going to be reloading factory brass shot from only their own gun?

I can't say enough good things about the Lee neck sizer. It's the only die that will, by design, leave zero bullet runout. The Redding would be my second choice.
I neck size whenever I can and when I have more than one rifle in a given chambering, I do keep cases separate and mark the boxes.
And +1 on the Lee collet dies.
I fullsize the first time. Then fully prep brass. Then I necksize thereafter until the shoulder needs to be bumped back again. When I do, I set the fullsizer die to where it needs to be in relation to the cases, not where I had it before.
