i think the bottom scratch can be fixed but not the two missing square connector things (don't know what it's called but those can't be replaced, at least not easily by someone without specialized tools and deep knowledge in micro electronics)

This card is a no go IMO.

Hmm. It looks like there are two missing capacitors, and some jumbled solder on the PCI-E connector. Unless you know how to solder, I don't think you can fix it. If you do know how to solder, you'll need to find two replacement capacitors. I have absolutely no idea where you would find them. Good luck!

there are some smd capacitors missing and a broken connection. But there is also damage between the 2 screws on top of the red circle on the left, some corrosion and a missing capacitor. That doesn't look at all like shipping damage. If you can send it back do it.

Guy said it got damaged in shipping

Then I'd be filing a claim with the shipping company first, and looking to fix it second.
