My question exactly. I have two rolls of 60/40 .031" diameter Alpha brand
solder that was stored in a house in Nassau for seven years under a pyramid
made of copper sheet. Does that count?

Look in the newsgroups for info regarding Ebay WE solder sales. The stuff in
5 lb spools is selling for hundreds of dollars to mostly asian buyers.

One Ebay seller touted in his ad the importance of using WE solder in WE
equipment for optimal performance. When the asian buyer was asked by others
why we paid hundreds of bucks for a 5 lb spool, he replied that he totally
agreed with the seller's statement. LOL!

I've got at least 10 spools of older Radio Shack "Realistic" brand solder.
Anyone with "Realistic" brand radios needs my stuff really bad at only $50 a
spool ;-)

Perhaps you should take it to a priest and have holy water sprinkled on it!

Are these buyers the same guys that pay $100's for felt pads from the dollar
store repackaged as 'magic' audio damping disks?
