Vintage Stereo "Stack" Systems & Separates (Working or Not) (Wildridings RG12)
Hi everyone, I am looking for old stereo stack systems or hifi separates that are no longer being used. Whether it's a full "tower" system from the 80s/90s or individual pieces (amplifiers, tuners, CD players, or turntables), I would love to save them from being scrapped! Condition doesn't matter,I enjoy the challenge of cleaning and refurbishing these old machines. If yours has a "crunchy" volume knob, a CD tray that won't open, or simply hasn't been turned on in ten years, I’m happy to take it. I’m a firm believer that these older units often sound better than modern plastic speakers once they’ve had a bit of TLC! Many thanks for helping me keep these classic machines out of the landfill!

Cassette Tapes & Players (Save them from Landfill!) (Wildridings RG12)
Hi everyone! I’ve noticed that most charity shops are no longer accepting cassette tapes, which sadly means many of these are ending up in the bin. I am on a mission to keep the format alive and give these tapes a second life! If you have any old cassette tapes (music or even home-recorded blanks) gathering dust in your loft or garage, I would love to take them off your hands. Whether it’s 80s pop, 90s rock, or your old mixtapes, I’ll give them a good home where they will actually be listened to. Also, I am also looking for cassette players of any type—Walkmans, boomboxes, or old hifi decks. Even if they aren't working perfectly, I’m happy to take them to refurbish, fix the belts, and get them spinning again. I’m happy to come and collect at a time that suits you, or you may drop them off. Let’s keep the music playing and keep the plastic out of the landfill! Thanks in advance!
