figured bubinga?

I'm looking everywhere for highly figured bubinga. If none of you have any you're willing to part with, would you mind sharing a trusted source for it? Man I hate buying wood over the net from a big wood outfit. Of course every picture they post looks like the most beautiful piece of wood you've ever seen, and then you get your piece in the mail and it looks like a 2x4.

Bubinga doesn't seem like a hot commodity in the knife scale world, but I have a customer who is dead set on it. I just can't in good conscience put some piece of straight grained lumber on his knife and that's all I'm finding for sale where actual pictures of the block are posted.
