I'm not going to lie to you, neither one of those sets is worth a lot of money, in fact the price range is anywhere between free and $50 on a really good day. On the other hand these sets are fairly easy to work on, once the condensers and any bad resistors are changed they are reasonably good performers. They also look like they are fairly complete, and the cabinets are in a fair to good condition, and the veneer is somewhat attractive. The phonographs can be a pain to get working, usually the cartridges will need to be rebuilt and the motor and mechanism cleaned up and oiled. If you got a pinball machine going a record changer should be no problem. The way I look at it you have nothing into them, the repair parts are cheap, and they are good practice for restoring more desirable sets if you get any in future.
