Title: Hakko FP-102 soldering station

$120 shipped, and comes with two (!) solder spools (at least $30 value) and two new tips (at least $20 value). Combined with better thermal performance, wider tip choices, and better handpiece, it makes it a far better deal than a new 888, for example. The only catch to be aware of is that it has 4 preset temperatures that you can't really change, but most of your soldering will likely be done at only one of them (650 or 700), so it's not a big deal.

Here's another one, for $75+ship if you don't care about the extras of the one in the original post:
