Academy has had Winchester 9mm brass-cased for $4.86/box (or $4.68) for quite sometime. They sell it in the short case (500 rds) - 10 boxes for less than 50 dollars.
That's about the best bargain in town.
I've seen too many of the local commercial reloaders have blown cases to trust them. Who knows how many times they have been reloaded? I saw a T's .45ACP take out a Llama .45 a few years back.
The frame was very soft and the casehead separated and produced a nice bulge in the rails. The shooter asked how he could fix the Llama. 
I told him find a good buyback program, get a gift certificate to Academy or Oshman's and but something decent.
