Other options are, of course, Arkansas, and you will not pay a lot for shipping, Wastikivi from Finland, Amakusa and others from Japan, many sandstones from Europe, including the pietra Serena I like from Italy, you can ask Fabrizio (bushdoctor) if he can find any, and many others.
Or you can go for a Chosera 1000 or Sigma select II 1.2k which are the fastest.
Thanks for the info, looks like I have a number of options to research. The chosera, or even a naniwa is pretty tempting. In fact, amazon has the henckels branded superstone 1000/220 on sale at the moment, so that is a bit tempting as well.

Can I ask what is it that you like about the pietra serena?
