Namikawa Heibei is a superb e-tailer

Skins are sold my grade quality but the low grades are still high by other standards

Does the British source have an on-line presence? If so, please post a link.
Thank you.

(page 2 and 3 have some ray-skin)

They have lots of other nice things.....

And I think they ship anywhere....
You probably only need to consider the cost.......

I bought three hides from Pietra Dura in England a month ago and shipping to Virginia was fast and cheap. He sells internationally through an e-bay store.
