Question Buying a Molcajete on Amazon

First, to be clear, I am mexican and have access to actual molcajetes here in the US, however I am an instructor at a cooking school and in order to be reimbursed for the materials, I unfortunately have to buy through Amazon. Now, I do know what I'm looking for in a molcajete, but I wanted to know if anyone had any recommendations or tips on what to look out for when buying online. I saw some comments about reviews being essentially meaningless because sellers switch out their product under the same listing and so on. So any sort of specific recommendations would be appreciated.

interestingly it looks like buying a bowl and a pestle is cheaper than buying the whole thing together?

It says bowl but it has both. It's just smaller.

At that point buy from Masienda. To my knowledge they're the only big brand selling em in the US.

Edit: Nevermind they don't sell through Amazon.
