Both those are department store bikes, old enough not to be sold anymore. You can still find a little info on the magna: https://www.amazon.com/Dynacraft-Magna-Outreach-Yellow-26-Inch/product-reviews/B008P7O2W2
The suspension Units on the magna are crude enough to be nearly non-functional. As are the stamped-metal brakes on the Barrington.
Them being in ”great condition” doesn’t matter much since you’re looking at bicycles that were very cheap from the start.
It’s really a toss-up which is the poorest bike. The Barrington has the poorest brakes and crankset. But the Magna promises more. Which it can’t deliver.
At a best guesstimate your prices are about double what bicycles like that sell for used.

Honestly if you wanted to sell them, I'd say $25 for the lady's bike.
I have been offered bikes like that for free from friends wanting to get rid of them and I refused even for free. They seem to be more of a hassle than anything being low quality and trying to get them running smoothly.

I wouldn't pay more than $15 either or any of those two, the latter one was sold by Target, not sure who sold the first one. I did see an online auction where the Barrington went for $22 and the Magna went for $5.
No offense but a Huffy to these is like having a Toyota Supra compared to a Yugo. And Huffy bikes are just above bottom feeding.
