I've dealt with Francesco Sirene, who do mail order from Canada, which
makes for an interesting time sending payment (I found I needed to get
an international money order), but it was worth it. Their prices are
excellent and quality is also excellent. I think I spent $31 US for a
half-kilo of whole long pepper. Their URL is:

A brief blurb from their web page:
Francesco Sirene, Spicer
PURVEYORS OF GOODS FOR HISTORICAL COOKERY AND LIVING
Standard and Exotic Spices: alkanet, cubebs, galingale, grains of
paradise, liquamen, long pepper, mace, saffron, saunders, sumac, and
many more
Special Treats: candied violets, crystallized ginger, licorice
root, more
Incense and Dyestuffs: frankincense, myrrh, madder root,
cochineal, more

But enough of this, I'm not a stockholder...
Good luck on the others!
