There is nothing wrong with selling "busted" hardware, as long as the parties involved are aware of it! Some people fix the broken boards or use the chips etc. I don't see that anything wrong was done from doctor q. Amiga 4000 motherboards are hard to find, and expensive at that. Besides his board worked; just the RTC did not, and it is not needed for operation. I remember seeing his posts and he was honest and up front with the condition of the board. Why Amiga Center was not able to fix it, I don't know...
Back on topic, the only way to make a A3000 AGA is to get the rare 3000+ motherboard!!
