It's actually much cheaper if you already have an EOS account. You can use simplEOS wallet to create a new account by yourself. The only thing you have to pay for is RAM, which should be like 0.5 EOS.

If you will download simplEOS you can send me the code, which it lets you create and I can make that account for you. No problem whatsoever.

Sincerely,
