I think the shipping would eat up any savings. What cable are you looking for? 4/0-4/0-4/0-4/0-4/0-2/0? Or 4/0-4/0-2/0-4? Or you could go with individual aluminum XHHW individual conductors and conduit. Is the $2.50/ft you are seeing for cable or individual conductor?

where in AZ? Most places seem to be under NEC 2008, I believe you need 4 wires not 3 from your meter / disconnect to the house.
