This is what I would do if I woke up this morning in your shoes.
Two Seneca's NIB would stay NIB. Apparently these guys don't get out much and see what reality is. I have seen a common price for a Seneca 36 cal. barrel go for $300+ and not be NIB.
I was offered an NIB, still sealed Seneca 36 cal with a very low serial number for $1500 and the guy didn't even blink.
There is no doubt the Seneca is the most sought after, price wise, Thompson Center made. There were few made and they are wonderful shooters.
If you don't appreciate them as NIB, sell them to someone that does and get yourself a lesser “collectable” rifle to shoot. One shot or 100 they will not be NIB so beware.
The Cherokee is a much less desirable gun than a Seneca. But some folks like them better just like comparing a Hawken to a Renegade.
My advise keep them NIB or sell them as NIB. You may and probably won't see another Seneca NIB for the rest for your life. As you should have concluded form reading the common posts of, “Why can't I ever find this stuff?”
