Today, i just noticed LCSC (a supplier for JLCPCB) has some STM32G030 and they are way cheaper than in mouser i bought

100+ for US$0.7436

I bought 100 of them in price of 1.19$, but this price is way lower than ST eStore itself.

Just.. how? Is it a reliable seller? Is there any price regulation for China?

I had to ask this because it supplies components to one of the biggest PCB manifacturer. So, if i want SMD assembly, they would probably use these chips.

Best regards

    There are definitely scammers taking advantage, and "too good to be true" is usually true.

    Some checks (Do them all, we do as have being burned):

    A. How long have they been established? Best avoid anyone under several years unless you know them otherwise.

    B. Check if known scammers

    C. Google checks:

    D. BBB (For more local)

    E. Check URL

    F. FTC
