## How to buy

- **Build a cart:** compose `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link?items=ADA1597:1` (comma-separated SKU:qty pairs) and share the link. Opening it shows a confirmation page with live pricing and stock before anything is added to the cart.
- **Verify the cart first:** fetch `https://core-electronics.com.au/cart/link/ADA1597:1.md` for live line prices (inc & exc GST, quantity discounts applied), stock and dispatch estimates, and totals. Append `/to/{AU-postcode}` (or `/to/{country-code}:{postcode}`) before `.md` for delivery options and prices to that destination. Unknown, retired, or out-of-stock SKUs are flagged. (Query form `cart/link.md?items=...` also works but some robots parsers refuse query strings here.)
- **Checkout** is completed on-site and includes a captcha at the payment step. Share the cart link; checkout takes it from there.
- **Search the catalogue:** `https://core-electronics.com.au/search/{query}.md` (URL-encode the query; pages 2-3 at `search/{query}/{page}.md`; `search.md?q=` also works)

## Description

Ever go to a diner and they give you a bottle of ketchup and it says "Extra Fancy" and you're thinking to yourself "What makes this ketchup 'extra fancy' anyhow?" Well, this professional-grade solder sucker is "Extra Fancy" and there's no question as to why. When you hold its machined aluminium body, you'll think "Fancy!", the smooth action and release is also "Fancy" and the replaceable silicone rubber tip? "Extra Fancy!"

This Japanese upgrade to the classic $5 solder sucker is a joy to use. Since the tip is rubbery soft silicone you don't have to worry about it melting. You also get a long tube in case it gets clogged or dirty.

To use, depress the end to engage the vacuum. Then heat up the to-be-desoldered joint until it is liquid. With your other hand hold the plastic tip as close as possible to the joint and depress the button to suck up all the liquid solder. If necessary, clean up the remaining solder with wick.
