As well as Robin Hood brand pasta flour,  there is
Antoine's Pasta Flour, available in a 3 pound bag at a
gourmet store in Raleigh, and presumably elsewhere as well.
(Robin Hood products, alas, don't seem to be available here).
I don't remember what I paid for my bag of Antoine's, but it was more
than $2/5# quoted for Robin Hood.

Intrepid pasta chefs might want to check out their nearby Asian food stores
for semolina.  The Oriental Store of Raleigh,  which appears to be
associated with the Oriental Store of Chicago somehow,  buys
semolina in bulk and repackages in one or two pound plastic bags,
at very reasonable prices.  You might find it at natural/organic
type food stores also. (I don't know, I never go in. The sight of
whole wheat pasta offends me.)
