Worth buying these ? Sentinel and Black Beauty

Riding a '38 Autocycle Deluxe
I was just asked if I wanted these two TOC bikes.
I have not seen them but received these poor pictures.
The guy is at a swapmeet today and found them. He will pick them up for me but, not sure if it is a wise investment.
My money is tied up for Trexlertown this weekend and really don't want to commit unless they are needed by someone here. And prices are not confirmed...help with a fair market value would be appreciated. So I can make an offer.
No serial numbers on either at this point so you be the judge

I would buy them personally, but then again, it depends on the asking price.
That mead sentinel is something I wouldn't mind owning...
 
I would think you could get $800+ for the Sentinal since it has that wopper chainwheel....
 
The sprocket on that Sentinel is awesome. That bike's got some great character to it.
 
Just my opinion but I would not pass up on buying something nice right in front of me to save money for what may or may not be at Trexlertown. The time to buy is when you see it.

Good point but, I'm not there to touch them. Wish I could do the negotiations but have to leave up to a non bike collector.
But it's cool he sent me the heads up on them.

He just sent me the asking price on both
Sentinel... $800
Black Beauty. .. $450

The Mead is at full retail I would image.
The Black Beauty might be a fair price even though it has been house painted.

I just may have bought these two bikes. Waiting on a confirmation as the money hasn't changed hands yet.

Not having seen them yet but based on the pictures I posted earier I think my offers were fair to both parties.
I am waiting on more pictures of each.
If anyone is interested please email me.
Soon these may be listed in the for sale section if the deal is confirmed.
Did get a better picture of the Mead chainring....dang this is a big one.
