I'm all for the BuyFromEU spirit, but honestly, I love buying second-hand electronics even more. It's usually way cheaper than buying new, plus it's obviously much better for the environment.

With the whole RAM price crisis going on lately, I decided to build something to help us snag some good deals. I threw together a simple site where you can subscribe to the latest DDR5 RAM listings on Vinted (EU-based multi-country marketplace) -> https://ddr5ping.com/

You just put in your email, and whenever a new listing pops up, you get a quick notification with a short summary and a direct link to it. Hopefully, this makes it easier to grab some sweet deals on RAM for your PC or laptop.

In the future, I'm planning to add more features, like setting up alerts for when a listing drops below a specific price.

Happy to answer any questions or take feedback in the comments

This reminds me that there's a France based marketplace specialized in refurbished electronics called Back Market. I had some good deals with it some years ago, I haven't used it recently because I'm too far.
