ebay and $ 50 will do your needs.
If that links directly to a laptop without additional needed software or hardware I'd say that look like a good deal. I may get one myself, my rigid inspection camera has a very small screen and is hard to see/interpret at times.
I have a 50' inspection cam, USB, plugs into laptop. VLC treats the camera input as a stream and provides playback.

As long as the cord is long enough and you can record on the laptop, why does it matter?

I see plenty of USB inspection cameras for s lot less, like $15-$20. I am wondering what the difference is. I am guessing that the more expensive ones have higher resolution, which I assume is better to a point, but I'd also have to think that you would need to buy one with good reviews about focus and lighting. Some have more LED's than others (presumably more is better, but you never know).

Do most/all inspection cameras have an illumination light at the end of the probe next to the camera?
I am leery of USB attachments to my PC. Such as a probe camera that ships directly from China and is sold on EBAY.

I have the Harbor Freight HD model. This is the more expensive one; goes on sale for under $200 periodically. It has a nice, slender probe that goes into spark plug holes, behind timing elt covers, into rifle bores (over about .35 cal.) into computer cases and suspension systems to read part #'s, etc. The cheaper, $69 version doesn't have the camera resolution or slender enough probe to make it useful ,IMO
