I'm finding the process of ordering the controller board from pcbway a bit much for my skill level. Is it OK to ask if anyone is making a bulk order to sell me one or more?

Quoted from Planet866:Right now the STM32 MCU used on the pin2dmd is out of stock or very expensive due to silicon shortages. You may be looking at $30-$90 per MCU if they can source them. Other parts are likely to be out of stock or long lead time. It might be better to order a complete pin2dmd rather than trying to source the components.
Lucky1 did a video guide on how to order form PCBway with SMT assembly.
Anything you're particularly stuck on?
Thanks Plante886. I found that video, but the PCB website has changed. I was able to find the "Assembly" picture, but then I was asked to answer to provide a bunch of specifications which I could not figure out. The next questions are in the attached screenshot.
It looks like the price of the STM32 MCU is down to just above US$ 20. I found this one... is this right?

I'm thinking the best option for me would be to purchase a complete pin2dmd... where can I do that?
Thanks for your help!
