HVW Technologies is in Calgary and you can pick up your order to avoid shipping: http://www.hvwtech.com/products_list...ge=0&CurPage=0

I would recommend either the Hakko 936 station or the Dash Iron. The Dash is plenty for what you need but the station is really nice if you have the extra $ burning a hole in your pocket.

They also have all kinds of Arduino product, electonics bits and pieces....

I actually own 3 stations and 3 irons -but I use them all for various tasks.

Seriously though, for what you need, the Dash is a very good quality iron that will last you forever (I have 2). The only shorcoming is that it has no stand, but you can buy those separately.

Buying used isn't really a great idea. Anything for sale is probably junky and/or abused. The money you save isn't worth it.
