My Osmium and Rhenium collection

Here is my lovely Os and Re collection. The left is a 5.05g osmium bead and the right is a 10.4g Rhenium bead. They cost me about 258 USD totally.

My Os Element collection

Finally I got this osmium bead! It's 1.42g.

I bought it from China and it's really cheap. It costs me 430 Yuan, 63.6 USD. I have to say that China is really a great place for element collecting. Everything here is almost a third price to those in eBay. It's more also easy to get exciting elements, like liquid Chlorine, Mecruary, or white phosphorus.

As a fan of Osmium, I decide to buy a bigger one around 5g. This will cost me around 1300 Yuan (192.1 USD).

Hovever, Uranium is expensive. One gram even cost around 1200-1800 Yuan (177.4-266.1 USD). It's really hard to ship it here from US.
