I’ve been convinced to build my own NAS again instead of going with a Synology and I’m thinking there are probably parts that don’t matter if you buy used vs new but I’m curious what your thoughts are?

No concerns here.
I buy used server chassis and power supplies for my NASes.
The only new items in my primary, backup, and offsite NASes are the 500TB of HDD’s and a couple of fan splitters.
The only new items in my 3 Proxmox nodes are…nothing actually. All SSD’s, HDD’s and everything else is used enterprise hardware.
