I'm far from an expert, but I started with a soldering iron that was fairly cheap - about 30 AUD. I now use one that's a lot more expensive (close to 100 USD), and it's definitely a lot better, but I got by perfectly fine with the cheaper one until I was ready to upgrade.

For reference, my current (more expensive) kit is a YIHUA 862BD+.
