Looks like an Orb. Also looks like they got the stinger stuck in the net.

I paid around the same for my orb as well

they call them Hystrix and the collect them in Peru, it's pretty much what the wholesalers consider a common ray, so the attach the name to it so they can sell them. It usually screws you over cause unlike a "True Hystrix" a Orb can grow well over 20" in diameter leaving the buyer with a fish at least twice the size they were expecting a maturity.
