They were selling BBC micro:bit on Amazon for only £10.39 back in March,
free delivery.  https://amzn.to/2HtJkeY  It's a ARM Cortex-M0, 16 MHz,
256 KiB flash, 16 KiB RAM, 3-axis accelerometer and magnetometer, 5×5
grid of red LEDs, with an M0+ to present the USB programming interface.
Anyway, I ordered one even though they'd already gone into
administration and it promptly arrived without issue.  So I only got
one.

They sold out pretty quick, but they may well still have other items at
good prices online as well as on retail park.

Cheers, Ralph.
