OK, maybe I'm stretching the point a bit but it's too good to throw away!
My mother's friend has a Grunding Mandello radiogram languishing in her garage that is dangerously close to heading for the dump. It was working when it went in there about 20 years ago but currently shows no signs of life, sadly, although I am informed that the ratchet style on/off/function selector knobs on these do gum up with grease over the years and it may well just need some lubrication.
On the plus side, beneath a thick layer of dust it's in very good condition and comes with all its original manuals and circuit diagram.
I quaite fancy it myself but am reliably informed by "she who knows best" that the four radiograms I currently own are more than enough for anyone...
So there we are - go, on give it a home! Obviously it's big and heavy and so will need to be collected - it's currently located between Southampton and Fareham, very close to the M27.
