ECC (error correction code) does as its name implies, it corrects memory errors.
Usage is generally limited to servers and high end workstations where data loss from a crash would far outweigh the extra cost for the RAM.
That, or it's old inventory.
Some e-tailers are still selling GeForce 5600's for $300.

It's the combination of Buffered+Registered+ECC that makes up the price difference.
