Good size 68k FB Marketplace haul

About two weeks ago I stumbled upon a Facebook Marketplace listing located in Reading, PA (about 100 miles from where I am in NJ) for a pile of vintage Mac hardware. The photos were blurry but for the $350 price, it looked like a good deal even if half the machines were battery bombed. So far everything has been inspected and all batteries have been removed. Nothing is tested as of yet. Here's what I ended up with:
(2) Mac IIcI machines with no battery leakage. Neither has any drives or RAM, though they do have the drive carriers and cache cards.
-Mac IIcx with no leakage. Very yellowed. No drive carrier or RAM
-Mac IIsi complete with no leakage, 16MB RAM, both drives and PDS Ethernet card
-Mac Performa 630CD complete with no leakage. 32MB RAM, all drives present. Face plate is broken off but present.
-(2) Power Macintosh 6100/60 machines without leakage. One is complete with CD-ROM and A/V personality card and one is missing the CD ROM drive but is otherwise complete. Both are very yellowed and missing the tabs on top of the case cover
-(4) MicroMac SE's. I didn't know what these were until I posted about this on Facebook and got informed quickly. CAT Macs. The SE's vary from being complete with video card to being stripped of everything but the motherboard. None have battery damage. Three of them have complete video cards; two Lapis 10007's and one MicroMac Zero Slot video. The one with the Zero Slot card also has a Micromac Multispeed 25MHz accelerator.
-MicroMac SE-30 that's battery bombed. The MicroMac specialty parts seem to be salvageable, but the logic board is toast. It has a Interware Vimage 8-bit color video card that appears unscathed.
-Macintosh High Resolution Color Display
-NEC Multisync 14" VGA monitor
-UMAX SCSI Scanner
-CMD SCSI external Hard Drive
-(2) unbranded SCSI external CD-ROM drives
-One large moving box full of boxed software. I haven't gone through it much, but I can see I have Prince of Persia for Macintosh with the inverted pyramid box and Vette by Spectrum Holobyte.

I'll be adding pictures soon. Unsure as to what I'm doing with it all yet

I'm not sure what I'm doing with the stuff yet
 
Nice haul! Thanks for the rescue. No doubt they would have been recycled if not for you.
Did you notice if the Mac II si have a ROM chip in the rom slot or are they using onboard ROM?

I'll have to take a look for that. All I did so far was a quick evaluation and battery removal on them all.
 
Apparently I also got a standard SE that I forgot to mention, and it was two CMD drives and one external CD-ROM drive. I still have to go back for two more SE's and a Syquest drive
