You need 50 of those to run at home for selfhosting/homelab? I've bought a few. Never had any issues. They're not hard to find if you need them in bulk. But then again, most people don't need 50 of them or even more than a few for home use. Amazon renewed sells mini-PCs and you can just as easily return them if there are issues. If you need 50 of them, then your use case is for enterprise or business use. You should probably not look at a raspberry pi then either.
Even if you don't want to buy on secondary market because concerns around ram, power supply or SSD. Then even a new mini-PC running something like a Intel N100 for $100-150 will vastly outperform a Raspberry Pi 5- yet still provide better I/O options + QuickSync.
