Best way to fix door hinges

I have a '93 coupe that had loose hinges when I purchased it 4 years ago. I had the hinge pin / bushing kit installed and it really didn't improve the situation much at all; not sure if the body shop installed them wrong or not.
Now that I am thinking of keeping the car I'd like to get the hinges repaired the right way and was wondering what that would be. While I had the car at the local Ford dealership I asked them how much it would cost to fix the hinges and they quoted me something like $1,200.00 to replace the hinges on both doors; I almost crapped myself.

What do you guys recommend to repair the door hinges so they stay tight for years to come and don't wear in a few years?

The driver's side door kind of creaks but, like you said, I can take care of that with some lithium grease. My bigger concern is how sloppy the door is in the pins; when I go to close the door it kind of moves around before it closes and I can grab the door and lift up on it and it moves up and down quite a bit.
Another thing is the fact that the roller thing no longer holds the door in the open position. If I open the door it just swings back closed again unless I hold it open.
