The best solder I've ever used is the Bernzomatic soft with the paste flux (the blue pack). Awsome stuff. It's hard to get and isn't cheap but worth it if you can get it.
I use the large roll of aquasafe from Bunnings now with a liquid flux. Not as easy to use but still not bad stuff.
Sorry can't help with the sellers on eBay.

Not much cheaper on ebay really.
Bunnings is everywhere and aquasafe100 is a known safe and quality solder.
$47 for 500g roll i think last time i saw it.
Actually $45/500g roll according to online bunnings:
