What would you do? (Large lot of systems)

I am not an Apple II collector, or even a computer collector.  I'm just
someone who has fond memories of growing up with an Apple.  (I also
still have a Laser 128EX boxed up in the closet.  And I happen to
collect old video games, but I digress....)

I have gotten a lead on a guy with a large lot of Apple hardware stored
in a warehouse.  He says he has IIe, IIc, and even some Mac Classic
systems.  He also has some monochrome monitors, disk drives, and
printers.  I thought it would be nice to have a genuine Apple since I've
found a few things my Laser won't run.  For $30 I can get a IIe, disk
drive, and monitor.  For $50 I can get two sets.  For $300 I can get the
lot of IIe stuff (20-25 systems, monitors, and drives).

Naturally, if I bought them all I'd resell most of them, probably on
eBay.  Would I manage to break even?  I hate to see them neglected, but
I don't exactly have $300 just lying around either.  Oh, and he's
offered to let me see the warehouse to check them out.  Advice?
