I would like to buy 9 bags of Onyx sand for my 100 gallon aquarium, but the prices are as follows.

BigAl's 107.30 + 109.90 shipping = $217.20, no tax
Drs Foster & Smith 134.91 + 52.49 shipping = $187.40
lfs = $207.00 plus tax

Shipping is so high because they are shipping heavy stuff from the East Coast to the West Coast. I am looking for another supplier/distributor that's a little closer to reduce shipping costs. Please help!

You can try this place:

J&L Aquatics (http://www.jlaquatics.com/cgi-bin/shopping/jalstore.cgi?user_action=list&category=Aquarium%20Supplies;General;Substrate)

They are located in lower mainland BC. I am not sure what their shipping is like to the US. But you could check it out. :D

E-mail SeaChem and ask where their are Onyx Sand carriers around your location. They have the names and addresses of all the places. Great choice by the way. Can go wrong with it. 80gJoe and I both have it and it is excellent.
