They have been pretty good in my experience, my two xeons are used and they have worked perfectly :) Just make sure they are reputable sellers and you should be ok

CPUs and RAM are the least likely parts to fail in a PC. You should be fine.

but with ram is so cheap so why not buy it new

Well right now but back in 2014 when a single stick of 8GB costed 75 bucks, it was much more common to buy used RAM.

you forgot to put pc cases on that list its almost never fails (funny because I had one fail)
