I've been checking around the used market for DDR4. It seems used ECC DDR4 sticks are now cheaper due to low demand.

ECC memory and server hardware in general is surprisingly cheap if you're fine buying used gear that's a few years old. Once that stuff gets old enough that it's being cycled out of data centers en masse, it hits the used market and the supply often exceeds the limited demand for that kind of stuff.

With that said, I don't know if that's true at the moment.
