Im thinking that #1 is more likely a copiapoa of some sort than a sulcorebutia just based on the spines or lack of.
I'll agree with parodia or something similiar for 3
Could number 2 be an echinocactus of some sort?

Not certain on any of those identifications but they look similiar to what i've said and might help with your search for positive ID.
Could always post them for an ID in one of the numerous facebook catus groups.

#1 indeed looks like a sulcorebutia or rebutia, and what I dont like about it is not the lack of spines, as plenty of species have small or comb like spines, but the fact that some pups have hair in the centre which is unlike of rebutia/sulco... so maybe sulco or maybe something else . the pics are not helping to be honest

#2 Notocactus mammulosus

#3 Some Rebutia is my guess

I am almost 100% sure for #2 - Noto mammulosus , reason is I have it for couple years and have positively id'ed it a while ago

you wont find 3 easily.. it could have red, yellow, pink or white flower for one.. no chance to narrow down more if it doesnt flower I think
