Mouthpiece Work / Source for blanks?

SUBJECT: Source for blanks?
Where can I buy blanks? I would imagine there are sources in China, if only one can find them. There are a lot of Chinese sellers on ebay. Maybe one of them will sell good stuff in small wholesale lots. I bought one tenor mouthpiece from China on ebay. It turned out to be unusable even as a blank. It was made of soft plastic, and crudely malformed. Will anyone help me out?

The mouthpiece is pure junk, not at all suitable either for playing or as a blank.

Unless the mouthpiece was grossly asymmetrical, I don't understand why it could not be used as a blank. I have purchased some cheap Chinese plastic mouthpieces, and yes, they don't play well - not at all! But they certainly can be refaced or have the chamber altered.
