You are better off with this one:
https://www.eevblog.com/forum/microcontrollers/cheap-microchip-dev-kit/


Not sure when it expires but it comes with a PIC24, PIC33 and a PIC32MX2, it is Version 2 of the board you linked too and is less than half the price.


Cheers

I purchased the other one. I am just reporting on a new promo. I have no intention of buying this new one. The comment about the shipping is just that, a comment.

Agree, I have an explorer 16 with ICD & attach boards - I was making a low cost soln for a starter

I'm ordering one, but they're currently out of stock.  Supposed to be available middle of July.
