Just go on ebay, craiglist, facebook marketplace etc. There are a million used RX580s for pretty cheap. Aliexpress is rampant with fake and broken cards and it can be difficult to return them. Saving 10 or 20 bucks is not worth is.

Guess what , let's say if a rx 580 on ebay cost $130 . and it's shipping will be like $200-300 . I mean shipping is free or pretty cheap on aliexpress

Where are you that a RX580 is 130 and shipping is 200?Ive seen 580s going for 70 and 80 USD, hell ive seen a 580 for 50 bucks(used for mining), with 5 or 10 buck shipping.

You can always try Facebook marketplace to find cards being sold in your area with the added benefit of being able to haggle the price and you can inspect the card before you hand over cash to eh person.

I'm really not sure. Maybe @Lutfij can recommend somewhere safe to buy from.
