Old technology is not the reason there is so much inventory which is driving the price down. Google rolled out a firmware update last year that really screwed the mesh functionality. I was such a fanboy for these devices until 6 months ago.
I am running 3 routers in a mesh topography. 1 main and the other 2 are APs. Why? I needed the ports for the APs.
I am in the process now of running MoCA backhauls to the 2 APs and hopefully that provides an acceptable workaround., this was rock solid until the latest firmware.
On a separate note, I have a 2800sqft 2.5 story house and with just the 1 router on one side of the house, I get 90% coverage

Also, I have arlo plugged into ethernet on the main router. Since there is only one ethernet port, I can't run a cat6 wire directly between two units.

If I was on the market for this model I'd go on Facebook Marketplace or eBay. You can probably land one for $20 or under. Second hand markets are flooded with them killing their resell value. They're pretty much worthless to resell so you can do way better than $50 buying one.
