From AliExpress, what do you expect?

12V part is simple passthrough.

. The problem is that 11V standby. There's a black heat shrink on that cable. That's the boost converter to convert 5V standby from an ATX PSU to 11V.

 

The standby rail doesn't supply much power. Worst case the boost converter melt or blow apart, the PC is done. I don't think it has enough power to start a fire.

Thus I think it's generally okay to use. It should be also okay to sell the computer you personally used. (don't cite on me)

But, if you plan to start a business reselling old PC, you should check further. You might be have certain liability as a business. (again don't cite on me) Talk with a lawyer if you need.
