SILVALOY 40% SILVER SOLDER FOR SALE

Here is some cadmium-free 40% silver solder, made by Wolverine, which now belongs to Lucas-Milhaupt.

To establish fair pricing, I wrote to Lucas-Milhaupt, but they were of no help, declining to quote a price, and referring me to Linde near me, who have already failed to quote me a price. I therefore refer to Amazon, eBay, and McMaster-Carr, all of whom want a lot for this stuff:

Amazon: $CDN74.61+ HST = 84.31
https://www.amazon.ca/Lucas-Milhaup...ae-9aa1-fc8a4a9ed077&pd_rd_i=B01N4PE9L7&psc=1

eBay: $CDN95.76 + shipping + duty + GOK what else....
https://www.ebay.ca/itm/154620293326?_skw=lucas+milhaupt&itmmeta=01JWBXPSQF43HKMYPGZ63ZWKT3&hash=item24001670ce:g:QTkAAMXQcWVREmQO&itmprp=enc:AQAKAAAA8FkggFvd1GGDu0w3yXCmi1cioZO5HCWMgtO4mGU76wanspyQleZqIpbzyJTGNIZPCLJH0UtQT9Uv4JfoAr5kbdFFYAe0Qu3Gvvn4WVjHoEUFJRyMz9BkLYcwIHp7aSyOIGUtFNpFuADk1R4QGmvlxtym51BBNTvBB7QjKAS0HBJsIP969lg05jKigZt76fG/gkE9O77+DlBueCL16zLDFRVwaAN8KJBQ8hj3vDnxm3KQ8zXY8WQUxX1OOOCLeqWcq7ESHkRUThY1qpXCB0dc65PZwNVf/bckhFYfHwFjPvTAoc5QSG7j39t+a2vPb2dj1g==|tkp:Bk9SR-qb2_3iZQ

The foregoing two examples are prices for 45% silver; as mine is 40%, I have adjusted my price accordingly (and reasonably, I think),

McMaster has the real 40% stuff. I've attached a shot of their page. They want $USD79.79 for 2.5 feet, plus shipping, plus duty, plus GST plus maybe brokerage, etc..

I can sell my silver solder for $CDN60.00/Troy ounce (no cadmium, no HST, either), which represents a significant saving. This gives you 2.5 feet of 3/32" wire.

I won't cheat you; I'll make sure that you get a full Troy ounce ( 31.2 grams).

PM me if you're interested.
