The buffered/registered is cheaper on ebay, and also higher density (up to 32GB

It's cheaper because you can't use it on most consumer hardware.

There was an announcement [1] about a new line of servers called
WHITEBOX OPEN (yes, all caps)
which appears to be about servers with Coreboot or Linuxboot and OpenBMC.
Has anyone any experience with this company?

If you just tampered the UEFI firmware is much less of an issue for RMA
and support (in my experience), depending on how bad you tampered with
it, anyway.

I don't think the seller can be held liable for anything, as long as
they clearly stated what they did to the hardware they are selling.
Of course they will have to be able to provide any warranty and support
over the devices

Meh, Intel ME is necessary for x86 platform initalization. Without ME
the PC does not start at all.
Anyway, the ME is used to provide third parties control and "security"

What's the point?
Coreboot is not supposed to be used as BMC firmware.
If you want open BMC firmware you need to look for OpenBMC project, that

should provide. https://github.com/openbmc/openbmc
