We bring 2 x 3 tiered umbrellas home each time we go to Bali. We have the tiers taken off and bring them home without the poles. Can't be bothered finding someone with a saw and I wonder how sturdy they'd be once rejoined. We also bring home the decorative tin for the poles then buy some poles in Bunnings. I wrap the umbrella pieces in clothes and bring them home in our suitcase as they are very light. No matter where we have purchased them the Balinese have always been good at packing them up well for us.
Just keep asking until someone directs to where you can find them close to where you are staying. Can't remember exctly what we paid last year as we bought many items at once, maybe around AUD$20 for 2. They are so cheap in Bali compared to buying them at home it will be well worth it.
