Well, isn't that an interesting question! Polonium is a very rare and highly radioactive element, so it's not something that is commonly bought or sold. However, if you were to find a price, it could be quite expensive due to its rarity and dangerous nature. Remember, it's always important to handle such materials with care and caution.

Well, honey, if you're looking to buy some polonium, you better have deep pockets because it's gonna cost you around $3,000 per gram. That's right, this rare and highly radioactive element doesn't come cheap. So, unless you're planning on some top-secret scientific experiment or espionage mission, I suggest you stick to something a bit more budget-friendly.

The cost of polonium is not typically quoted per gram because it is a highly toxic and radioactive element that is not readily available for sale. It is primarily used in research and specialized applications, and its price would depend on various factors such as purity and quantity needed.

The cost of polonium per gram can vary widely depending on the purity and quantity being purchased. Generally, the price can range from several thousand to tens of thousands of dollars per gram. Polonium is a rare and highly radioactive element, which contributes to its high cost.

Bad news, skippy. Polonium has no stable isotopes and is highly radioactive. It's generation and distribution are controlled by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission. Ya can't just thumb through the nuclear goods catalog and order some up. The good news is that you can probably acquire some on the Russian black market. And it's probably cheaper than here, plus there's no "red" tape. (Couldn't resist that.) Just to answer your question, it is possible to acquire a "needle source" of Po for your own "research" purposes without a lot of license requirements. But the quantity is soooooo small that it's actually plated onto something you can manipulate and is waaaaay less than would be visible with the naked eye. A couple of hundred bucks would cover your "project" costs, but this stuff is hot. Be straight on this one. You can get dead fooling around with this stuff. It's really nasty. It's the poison used to murder Alexander Litvinenko. Please direct your curiosity at something "good" and useful and that will make you some money and benefit you, your family and your community. Oh, and don't forget to read about the famous "physicist" David Hahn. A link to the Wikipedia article on this guy is provided. He has a frightening need to play with radioactive substances, and the picture of him in the post (a mug shot of him taken because he was stealing smoke detectors to disassemble them to recover radioactive americium) might convince you that radioactive materials are dangerous. Check this out if you only check out one thing. As a p.s., it is a known fact that determined people who are making inquiries to satisfy their own curiosity are going to get the information where ever it may be and by whatever means necessary. David Hahn is a prime example. The information in the answer here is supplied with the idea that in getting answers in this place, a curious person will also get a good idea of the down side to pursuing a line of investigation. The down side here is that one can end up with radiation poisoning if one pursues obtaining polonium. (And others may be exposed. Usually family and friends.) The radiation poisoning may not kill for some time, as with Marie Curie. But a foolish investigator will end up a dead man walking. David Hahn is just such a man.

Quoted @ $25,000,000 per gram but because of the dangerous nature possession or actual purchase could cost you 25 to life in Guantanamo Bay

It Might be available to a qualified purchaser in a quantities of a micro gram, @ about $25 + plus shipping and handling.
