Try Fedora Trad Materials. I got a piece fromt hem a couple months back. Fancy grade was $44 for a recurve sized block.
If you do order from them and do not plan to use the wood for a while make sure both ends of the block are sealed. Looks like they cut my piece off from a larger board and I did not seal the cut end right away and got some checking when if acclimated. Otherwise it was a very nice piece of wood.

if you buy from woodcrafters, and it is the turning stock it will be very wet.

heres the coco I got from fedoras:

   http://tradgang.com/cgi-bin/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=1;t=057550;p=1#000011

as said above...the cut end was not sealed and has checked a little bit.  I also bought a 2x2x22  of paduak and coco from woodcraft (a little more expensive but no shipping) and am satisfied with them just as the piece from jay.
