Looks like a nice piece. Seller has good feedback and like you said, you'll only be out $38. I say do it.

Check out the app "torque" in the app store if you get a 5 dollar Bluetooth obd reader it's really efficient and cheaper than what you're looking at

I think i bought one of those like 5 years ago just to have it in my car or something, It works well, Nothing special.. If i were you id get one that can read ABS codes as well. However this gets the job done.

This. Torque app and an ELM 327 bluetooth scanner. Total cost is about $30. I use it and it's a great setup. It's also customizable.

If you want to spend a little more, the LAUNCH c-reader VIII is like $250 on amazon. It is a very solid piece for the money. Used it quite a bit when I used to wrench at the Land Rover dealership. It does P codes, abs, srs, and has recordable pids.

Yep. And if it doesn't have the PID for the sensor, you can add it yourself.

Depends on the vehicle. Ford extended PIDs are pretty easy to find the info on. I know they have the PID info for Diesels, but not sure about gas engines.
