Hello i would like to start saying i searched quite a bit about solder and decided to go with Dave's advice on the Soldering Tutorial videos and get some good solder preferably with lead with a 63/37 or 60/40 analogy and a diameter of 0.3mm provided it has a flux core. Problem is that living in Greece i have few choices of brands and stores mostly ending up buying stuff from Aliexpress , Ebay , Gearbest and Bangood. So what would you recommend for me to get?
Thank you in advance.
See if TME.EU ships to you in Greece, they're a European company. Here's a selection of good solders (63/37, 62/36/2 , 62/37/1) :
linkIf you want, I can mail you some Multicore 63/37 solder 0.56mm diameter with 2% no-clean flux from my own 450g spool I bought from Digikey one or two years ago.
The exact part is this one, 82-129-ND :

Detailed Description Leaded No-Clean Wire Solder Sn63Pb37 (63/37) 24 AWG, 26 SWG Spool, 454g (1 lb)
I don't know, a thick padded envelope and postage to Greece is maybe 2-3$ for up to 100g of weight and I don't have a mg scale to weight the solder so i can't "sell" you anything by weight.
Let's say i'd unspool around 30-50 meters of wire and whatever that ends up to, I'd give it to you for 2$, so if you paypal me 5$ in total then i'd be fine with it. I guess when i go to the post office they can measure and tell me the weight and if it's too low i'd send you back some of the money.... or if you figure a way to determine the actual weight per meter for this leaded solder, then i can be more exact.
You could even pay me in Ethereum or Ethereum Classic .. if you have a modern video card you can make those 5$ in about 3-5 days (i can explain how if you're interested though private messages)
