..I agree the product is good...... <*< <:( but just watch out for your credit card  :police: when purchasing from the said Company.......

I purchased & paid approx AUD$50.00 including air postal costs to OZ  & the silver solder & flux & all was OK ...delivered to OZ & paid via Mastercard

Then three months later....the fradulant account/bill statement/charge for ~~~~~ten fold the original cost... ......... it took another month of communications with the Company to resolve the issue >:-o .....Derek

BTW....the credit card number in the image was cancelled in 2007............

CUP are one of the better suppliers in the UK. You need to get an order in quickly Cornishman as, after Jan. next year, the Euro-idiots deem it unsafe for the inclusion of Cadmium (which allows free flowing properties) in Silver Solders, so it may pay you to stock up. For fine work, their paste in a syringe is good too.
