It's about 50€/16GB over here in France. DDR5 goes for 75€ and upwards. Used is a bit cheaper, especially for the SODIMM.
That reminded me that this exists.
Wow. I wonder how well that'll work out, like stability, need to lower frequency...
Did this also happen when DDR3 was phased out?
I think DDR3 only became more expensive than DDR4 when there were no new motherboards to support them.
AI is speeding up the process of retiring DDR4 if I am not wrong.

Can confirm. I got a quote a few weeks ago and then went to buy last week and they bumped up the price about 20%.
