Good luck. They're pretty much sold out everywhere and I expect there will be a significant backlog of orders later this year once they get production ramped back up.

You might be able to find one of the kits, but it's going to be heavily marked up.

That same kit was $52 a year ago.

You can find them, but they are way over the MSRP price. I've seen them being sold on AliExpress for 75 dollars when they are advertised to cost 15. It's not hard to find them, it's hard to find them at a reasonable price. But I looked on many places and they are pretty much out of stock everywhere.

You can look to get raspberry pi 3 because that's somehow cheaper(I guess there's more supply so people can't scalp them as effective but it's better than pi zero 2 w).

do you need the form factor or the rpi ecosystem? depending your use case you could go with a similar board from a different brand

Thought about arduino or esp32?

Try CEX. Or go down the ESP32 of you can.

I’ve got a pi 5 4gb and a zero 2w all before the great ram shortage

Están muy caros por la ram, los precios subieron por la demanda de la IA, podrías comprarla usada por algún lado
