Too good to be true... How do you even make profit when the 328 chip alone cost 5-6$?
Is this a leftover selling?
I see you have the mega2560 for a good price, they are free shipping too? I might order couple of them if I can hook someone with cc.
what does it do ?
It's a user friendly microcontroller, basically every 3d printer use one to read/execute commands.
I run my machines on the AT Mega2560 + a 1.4 Ramps board.
You can buy both for about $30 now, including drivers... so yeah it's a very cheap option to buy the essential brain of your 3D printer. The Ramps board fits on top of the AT mega
You download the marlin or similar firmware, flash the AT mega chip with it, and then it's a matter of tweaking the code for your printer and RAMPs / endstops, limits etc.

Meanwhile the legit 2560 version from arduino cost 55$+US, the non legit version works just as fine and cost 1/4 of the price.
