Hello,

I am needing help to find exotic leather for sale in Canada (stingray, shark, eel, snake) I have found suppliers in the U.S that will ship it to me but the shipping and customs cost is outrages, I was looking at one place for 2 stingray and 1 shark the leather alone was about $220 which wasn't bad but the shipping and customs cost was over $300.

Thank you in advance for any help.

Tandy carries some exotic leathers (like stingray & snake). You also might try Lonsdale Leather in Vancouver.  Although I doubt that their pricing will be favourable.

If you add your location to your profile, it is easier for members to make good suggestions.

Hi,

I've got sharks and stingrays, eels, snakes, vipers etc. For non-CITES spieces I can ship it. Im placed in Poland - shipping for 2kg small priority tracked gift pack is 17USD. So shark and 2 stingrays will fit in it. About 10 working days delivery time. Now on stock I have nice grey and black shark - big ones 4sqft up and some stingrays with nice colours: green, orange, blue or turquoise. I accept paypal.

Tearghost, make sure you can bring it to Canada legally or you run the risk of it getting seized and a risk of getting charged

non-CITES spieces are good to go. Only problem would be with raw leather products and CITES spieces. Rest I've shipped succesfully :). Doing lots of sales to Canada, USA and Australia - i think those countries have most demanding customs.

What cites and raw leather do you carry?. So I know what I can and can"t order. What is cites, this is new to me as I have never dealt with exotic leather, where do I find out what cites are in my area?.

Non-cited. He is talking about stuff like elephant. Some leathers need to have paperwork to prove it was harvested legally. Thats my take on it.
