At the end I'm going to send the guy a B450 S2H Mobo + fitted Ryzen 1600 + Wraith cooler.
The Mobo costs me 44€, the CPU has two broken pins and cost me about 20-25€. It has been working perfectly for us with two pins dropped into the socket.
i guess the guy has learned not to buy sh stuff without taking the insurance that the selling platform offers. He still got away with it, because I'm pretty sure most sellers would have left him in the cold. At the end its still possible that the system got fried because, for example, the damaged M.2 port shortcutted (that would be on me).
