I've purchased bags and had boots made from snake skin in Bali... Both times I've been stopped by customs and they have taken the items away for around 20 minutes to a person who is apparently an expert in animal products. Both times I have been given my items back as they were deemed to be farmed snakes and not an endangered species. I'm off to Bali tomorrow and plan on having more boots/shoes made from snake skin.
Good luck!
