Try and apply for an account. I set one up with Tessco a few years ago when
I was doing some part-time consulting work. Account holders will often see
significant discounts applied to pricing. I generally purchase all RF
connectors through them and generally purchase only Amphenol and RF
Industries products. All my crimp tooling was also purchased through
Tessco.

They are the biggest supplier to RF Communications market. Even without an
account, you can shop them online at retail.

All the big places carry these. Davis, Wireman, RF connection, etc...The
price is reasonable at all of them. Tool price and quality varies
widely. You might not like a "cheap" crimper, or regret the purchase
later on. Hunting around there's not a great deal of difference between
good and cheap prices.
I purchase 8X (braid plus foil) by the 500 or 1000 foot roll.
Connectors usually 25 at a time.
Normal coax here is either LMR400, LMR600, and Davis Buryflex(TM). I do
not use the UF versions of the LMR cables except for some left over.
