Re: Please help me ID my new cacti and succulents
The plants seem quite small and not very easy to identify. However, 2 and 3 look like echeverias and 7 appears to be a mammillaria elongata. Several of the plants seem to be showing signs of etiolation (fast growth with too little light). This may be due to the way they were stored before you got them.

Re: Please help me ID my new cacti and succulents
Number 3 looks like Echeveria "Black Prince". I suspect that 5 & 6 are Rebutias/ Aylosteras of some sort, but would hesitate to put a name to them without seeing flowers (and more normal growth under better light conditions, as Rod suggested). No. 8 is what was commonly know as Mammillaria gracilis, but seems to have been renamed to Mammillaria vetula subsp. gracilis. No. 9 is not very clear but looks like a Euphorbia

Collection mainly of cacti, though interested in a much wider variety of plants than I can accommodate!
