That is, by my estimate, the price to purchase roughly 61 pounds of the rare metal, osmium. Osmium is the heaviest natural metal on earth. 61 pounds is how much osmium will fit in a small, flat rate USPS box. Those are allowed to ship for anything under 70 pounds.
What I want to do with this amount of osmium is set up a chain of people, each of which only knows who they are to send it to, once they get it... but a chain of people that will simply ship and re-ship this osmium through the postal service. Just to fuck with the postal service.
I'm stoned and this is the greatest troll in existence.
Edit: Or since that's horribly unsafe, bismuth! With that, just $600 is all that I would need. Not really an epic-troll, sadly...
Oh well. It was a good idea, at least.

Just imagine lugging that into the post office, man. Someone has to HAUL in a small, flat rate box. They have to heave and heft, and ASK FOR HELP just to get it on the counter. And then postal worker will just stare. And then weigh it. And it will be under 70 pounds, so they'll have to take it. They won't believe it, but they'll have too.
Alternatively, for much MUCH less money, lead! That's just 30 pounds, though. No where near as good a troll.

I laughed pretty hard. This is actually a really good idea and I'm really stoned myself.

Lead should be something like $3 a pound or under, right now. But it is a toxic metal... an pure osmium sounds like it's even worse, actually.
Guess I can't take donations for this, after all. :( Bismuth is the heaviest non-toxic at 26.5 pounds. But that hardly seems worth it...

Nice. Another one to add to my "things I will do once I'm an eccentric billionaire" list.

WTF?
Why screw with the people who are delivering good recreational drugs to you? USPS serves me very well. India Post is very slow but always comes through. Those people work hard. What are you thinking?
