Well apparently you can buy radioactive Uranium ore off of Amazon

Amazon.com: Uranium Ore: Everything Else
Amazon.com: Uranium Ore: Everything Else

probably because the uranium is so low grade you can't make anything useful out of it.

well, I mean not like make a radioactive explosion, but you know just spread radiation via a normal bomb, just with some radioactive material strapped to it. Shouldnt be hard, but I guess you would have to have something that is at least a little more purer than unrefined uranium ore.

you would need uranium that's a lot more pure to spread it. otherwise, you can't make anything. that's why it's so difficult for ordinary citizens to make bombs (ones that spread radiation).
