ordering from Volks would be the best alternative since you'll be paying the exact price. Aftermarkets you can expect to be hit with an inflation.

Upcoming releases are Saber Nero from Fate / Extra and Saber Alter. You can still preorder them until the end of October, and release is June 2012 from Volks USA (slightly earlier for Volks JP). It was delayed a bit to this time because of the large volume of preorders for the Sabers. Also, Volks USA is allowing you to make a down payment for now, and pay the rest in Feb-Mar.

If Sabers are not your cup of tea then the next DDs to be made are Sakura Taisen. No pictures are available of them yet.

If you want one of the already released DDs (basically everything else), you will probably be looking at the aftermarket on mandarake or yahoo auctions JP. Expect to pay a premium here, it just depends on which DD is valued more. Most expensive ones include Sasara, Tamaki, Yuki Morikawa, FSN Saber, and Saber Lily. Saber Alter used to be up there in that list too but Volks has re-released her in the upcoming batch. Rereleases are rare and don't really happen so don't expect it to happen for the others.
