I have made a list of all the materials needed for this class with amazon links. Hope this helps people who would like to pursue this course from outside Stanford.
1. 1 Raspberry Pi 3 https://www.amazon.com/Raspberry-Pi-RASPBERRYPI3-MODB-1GB-Mo...
2. 1 1⁄2-sized breadboard https://www.amazon.com/Qunqi-point-Experiment-Breadboard-5-5...
3. 1 4GiB microSD card https://www.amazon.com/Samsung-MicroSD-Adapter-MB-ME32GA-AM/...
4. 1 microSD card USB adapter https://www.amazon.com/Adapter-Standard-Connector-Smartphone...

Edit: edited for solderless breadboard link rather than a solderable one.
I saved some money by buying a kit that included most of the parts. I confirmed that this setup works and have already completed assignment 0 with it.
1. Raspberry Pi 3: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01CD5VC92
2. CP2102 USB TTL adapter: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B072K3Z3TL
3. Breadboard/Cables/LEDs/Resistors kit: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01IH4VJRI
4. microSD card: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001B1AR50
Note that I didn't need a microSD adapter since my laptop already has a SD card port, and the card linked has a microSD-to-SD adapter. Overall, this was $64 vs $98 for the above parts, and it all had free one-day shipping.
