Where is the best place in Ecuador to buy Jivaro shrunken heads (tsantsas)?

I'm going to be studying in Cuenca, Ecuador this semester and I'm hoping on picking up some authentic (but not real) shrunken heads...and tips on where to find them?

Also, how much would I be looking at spending?

They also have an email account so you can ask them for places in Ecuador to buy them. They seen to be pretty expensive (from 20 to 60 dollars) but I'm sure you can find them cheaper in Ecuador. Good luck!

By the way, Cuenca is beautiful, you'll like the place!
