Default faulty tps sensor

hello there,
a few weeks back, I have had issues with my 2000 accord, I finally pulled the codes, and it's coming back as a faulty TPS sensor. I called my shop and was informed, that good ol Honda, will only sell them new, as a complete throttle body, 400 bucks...

is there any other way to get this done for cheaper? or does anyone know of places, of totalled accords to were I can by a throttle body for cheap.

also is this a known issue? that may have had honda issue a recall on this item?

Thanks for your help!
