I've used these guys from time to time. http://www.mintproducts.com/gold-eagles/ I don't know how their shipping compares to your current provider, but I've always been satisfied with the quality of product that I've received from these folks. And I never felt like I was getting hosed with the shipping. :smile
If there is a local dealer in your area, then I would try the local dealer. If you have more tham one local dealer in your area that sells AGE's, then you should shop around for the best price. If there is a coin show in your area, then you might want to check that out too.
