I've have an opportunity to buy two Geneva Cutlery Henry XS straight razors with cases in good shape for $50. They would need a hone and cleaning. Good deal, or no way??

Depends on the condition. "good shape" tells us very little.

I trying to get more pictures will post ASAP. I guess another way to look at it is, how much would a shave ready Henry be worth??

With those scales, 6/8", and buffed to a mirror shine, 60-80 maximum. Probably less.

The way I look at it is if you plan on shaving with them it might be a good deal. They'll last if you take care of them and provide some good shaves.
If you plan on unloading them on the BST you might recoup cost after honing/cleaning/shipping/etc. But why do that? Enjoy them while you can.

Are the Henrys X razors really worth that much? I would have thought they were worth 40-50 max like every other Genco.
EDIT: NVM, you said 6/8.
