No Issue. Is it worth it to buy a dev board second hand?

I discovered this chipset and have found a dev board on eBay for $37. Is it worth it to tinker with? I have the 2.8 version of the toolchain. And Sdk. On vs code.

I have never programmed a microcontroller. My intent is to learn about the board in order to use the chip for aftermarket bluetooth modification of apple keyboards. However, it comes with so many features I would like to study it. I own a xiao nRF52840 board. (From SeeedStudio) 

I could practice on that board but the website for Seeed not functional on my iPad Safari browser. Not very encouraging. Perhaps it is a more detailed way to learn about the chip. 

Sincerely,

Nicholas Vollmann
