I second the second hand gaggia classic - picked one up in a charity shop for a tenner 5 years ago and after descaling it worked fine (I think this is a common problem, so it's probably easy to find them listed as "not working").
Yeah, same I bought a few off ebay as 'unworking' and descaling them almost always sorted them.
