Please know that in most cases, Amazon isn't the seller of a lot of products.
In the case of Caputo and some other commercial flours, like Molino Grassi (which makes a Manitoba that I have in stock), it is repacked into smaller bags down from the 25-kilo bags it comes in for the customer's convenience.
Some of us are small family businesses dedicated to bakers, but there are other opportunists that sell anything that they can get their hands on as long as there is a margin. I would avoid those sellers and stick with one that is focused on the niche that you're in (bread/pizza/pasta).
Sir Lancelot flour fromKing Arthuris 14% protein. It's possibly the highest protein flour in wide commerce in the US and probably our best approximation of Italian farina Manitoba.
I live in the northern suburbs of NYC and up in Brewster, NY, about 50 mi from The Bronx, is a restaurant supply company called Ace Endico.
Ace has near 100 different types of flour. I have bought Dakota Maid Organic AP from them, recently KA Sir Galahad, all in 50lb bags for less than $25.
They carry Molino Grassi Manitoba flour, I purchased I think 2 5K bags for about $25. Try restaurant supply house near you.
You'll have to mail order it, but tons of places sell high-gluten flour, including Amazon.

I doubt that All Trumps or Kyrol are any weaker.
