So its still crap then! I lost a lot on it :eek: :eek: :( :o

If it is by any chance Pink Whip Ray skin, as fish lives in brakish water it could be found well up river.

DON'T BE TOO HARD ON YOURSELF IT IS DEFINITELY NOT CRAP BUT YOU MAY HAVE PAID TOO MUCH FOR WHAT IT TURNS OUT TO BE. (IT HAPPENS TO US ALL :o )
THE LARGEST STINGRAY PELT I SAW WAS 22 X 8 IN. I DID NOT FIND THE SPECIES BUT JUDGEING FROM THE SIZES I SAW IT IS NOT A VERY LARGE ONE AND EVIDENTLY A COMMON BYCATCH IN INDONESIAN AS WELL AS THAI WATERS. THEY ARE SELLING A LOT OUT OF THAILAND AS WELL AS BALI, I HAVE ADDED SOME PIC'S ONE DYED PELT, ONE BURGUNDY DYE,ONE NATURAL AND ONE FANCY DYES. IT MAY NOT BE THE EXACT SAME SPECIES AS YOUR SPECIMIN BUT WILL GIVE YOU A BETTER IDEA OF WHAT THE MATERIAL LOOKS LIKE DYED AND OTHERWISE.

It is crap with a x10 loop I can scrap the pink off. I will never be as generous to that chap agian. Not even a modern military bring back.
