Scammers can be in China and everywhere else in the world.It is our duty to do our own research and be vigilant about what we order and where we order it from.I never buy at Aliexpress but only from Ebay or Amazon and from sellers that have done more than 50 trades with 100% positive feedback this way I know I won't get scammed.Of course I pay a bit more money but I consider it as a premium for being sure that I won't be scammed.

Can you suggest a store where you can buy all this?
Are you looking at market prices for the item you are ordering?
If your motherboard costs $ 100 from most vendors, and you buy it for $ 50-60, then you shouldn't be surprised when you open the package.
It will be a non-working motherboard or other model

Don't buy items from sellers that haven't sold anything to people yet, this type of sellers will never have any comments under the item page that you can read and probably build your trust from there, always buy from verified seller that have sold many items before

Yeah sure mate. For example this seller is not scam :

https://www.aliexpress.com/store/all-wholesale-products/911662100.html?spm=a2g0o.detail.1000061.2.78a9159bI9CLO4

But prices are still bit high

I don't buy the motherboard at a cheap price, I paid 120$ for that motherboard from China and it end up to be a motherboard with two slots for GPU, I've already returned and I'm waiting for refund so no problem

This is a big problem. If your 8 video cards do not work, and the profit is $ 2-4 per day from each video card, then you do not earn at least $ 150 every week. Therefore, I am looking for components in my city, and from China I order only for the reserve.
But I do not collect more than 6 video cards in a farm, because a motherboard for 6 video cards can be bought from stock in any computer store.
