2015 New Original Model Raspberry Pi 2 Model B Board + 3.5" LCD Touch Screen Display + Clear Case - Free Shipping €43.18


I used the same site to price all three separately, to get a similar price comparison for anywhere else.

R. Pi 2 Model B Board - €32.49
R. Pi 2 Model B Case - €1.92
R. Pi 2 3.5" LCD Screen - €21.43

Total = €55.84

Maybe. Sometimes €30 - €45 items go through often enough without being asked.
If you do get asked, it could be roughly €10

The Feedback speaks for itself/looks decent enough to me - http://www.aliexpress.com/store/feedback-score/104958.html

Also, if you look a little further, the one star ratings are mostly all for the same product.

Ive bought loads of boards on aliexpress, and arduino kits and components, never got hit for extra by customs.

Any project ideas for pi + touchscreen? Screen seems a bit small tablet, but I'm sure you could do something cool with this with a bit more imagination?

It's only 480*320 resolution so most smart phones would be far better. Also saw that it only has a 6Hz refresh rate so no good for video ( but that could have been for a different but similar LCD)
I just got the screen to go with my RPI that's connected to my weather station - thinking of using it to show a forecast or rain radar
