Does anyone knows why most Epyc CPUs and MB on eBay are shipping from China? Does anyone here has experience buying a used CPU/MB from China?

Yeah, I've got my eye on a 7452 (seems like a good balance for core count and TDP) and a H12SSL (PCIe 4, and an upgrade path to Gen3 - although the power draw doesn't make that super attractive)
