Is it worth it to take a used blade server from European e-bay?

I want to try running VDS hosting. I looked at E-bay UK - and was very surprised and wary .. very interesting blade systems from HP are sold there at +/- 1000 euros worth. Is it worth taking them? I do not plan to create an ultra-clear, thoughtful project. It's more like a hobby/dream of a lifetime).

I often buy 1-2 year old servers on eBay. And just as often I sell 4-5 year olds that drop out after the upgrade.
Both those that I buy and those that I sell myself are usually in excellent condition, taking into account age of course.
It's the same with Blade systems. Look at the seller's rating and everything will be ok with a probability of 88%

In general, it’s stupid at a server rental price of 40 euros in a hatzner with 32 gigs of RAM
