I wouldn't mind getting these for people, but wouldn't tax and shipping just kill this deal?

Probably, now that I think about it. Shipping alone would be like $15-$20 for this size & weight I imagine. :-(

There's a Fry's near me. Should I get it? Iron, holder, station, tips included... With some solder and a soldapult, this seems like a quality starter set.

I'm not keen on soldering itself (labor and chemical hazards), but as a necessary means for customizing my own keyboard, I'm strongly considering it at this point.

What say you, GH?

It's a well regarded kit, at a great price.
