Two that immediately come to mind:

http://www.profilecity.com

http://www.chromatics.com

These two companies create custom profiles based on your 
printer. These are not canned profiles. I would guess that they'd 
run about $125-200 per profile (one inkset with one paper).

Depending on your level of pickiness, I'd say this is money that is 
well-invested. Also depending on how many papers/inksets 
you'd want to profile.

Compared to doing it yourself:
Xrite DTP41: about $2000
ColorVision ProfilerPro: $899
