I was very impressed with my crickets from GreatLakesHornworms. They were shipped super fast. I live in Illinois, and actually got them the next day. I also ordered some hornworm eggs, and they were great, too. I was able to feed tiny hornworms to my anole. 
The crickets were lively, well packed, clean and had no extra critters, which was very nice.

I raise my own cricks now, but order from Ghann's cricket farm.
I think they are in Georgia.
But since you live in MD, it's cold!! so better have them shipped overnight,
and be home to receive them, or they will surly all be dead!!

Can't go wrong with Rob at Great Lakes Hornworm.
Just be careful since it's winter. Most places have no Live arrival guarantees. So make sure to read their guarantees, and I would suggest using express in the winter.
Premium crickets I have heard thrown around as well for a good supplier.

I was ordering from Beechdale Animal Supply -(they are in PA and have a delivered price) and had pretty good luck with them - they don't ship in really cold weather so I had to wait a week once and my package got lost over the holidays-(By USPS not by them) the crickets were still mostly alive after 5 days- When they got lost I found that I could get crickets at my local pet store and have them delivered with their's if I order in advance (order Sat. pick up Wed) for about the same price I was paying online - I had been getting crickets from the pet store since the summer when I would run out and they never mentioned that they had a better price if I bought a box of 500 or 1000 until I told them that my online order didn't come in. (Can't blame them - I was paying over double getting them by the dozen) you might check with some local places they might have the same unadvertised special.
