      I’ve always wanted some, and an opportunity to purchase it arose. Set me back almost $500 but it’s a pretty good deal considering how hard it is to get ahold of.

        What will you do with it? Or is it just a trophy to brag about to your geek friends on the internet?

          I’m planning to make small ampules of mercury and sell them to recoup some of the cost. But yes, the cool factor was a big part of it. :P

            Please be aware of it’s toxicity and don’t do something stupid.

              Of course, I will be very careful when handling it.
