Has anyone done this?

Good price and a good challenge! I have not tried those. That seller alice1101983 always has great deals on amazing stuff.

Yes, I have bought from them a number of times. While I could beat the price by a few cents I know them.

I have seen an arduino interface to the camera pcb version so I know I can make that work. Not sure what the diff is between the pcb and just the camera section.

I feel guilty sometimes for what little compensation is involved, I know most of it is done in large batches on automated equipment, but there is the through hole soldering done by hand, "usually less than perfect results", and the packaging and shipping involved, can't believe a company can survive with such low pricing.
