I have all of the 63/37 solder I need for now, so I'm passing this on for anyone who is in need of some tin.
Yes, we have a menber who sells straight tin for $5/lb. which is a good price.
But, if you need 40+ pounds of eutectic solder, there are six slabs on eBay right now, that are 'Buy It Now' (not auction) sales.
I did the math on one of the heavier slabs and it came to $4.73 per pound for the tin alone...not even counting the 16+ pounds of lead content.
