Default O2 sensor for 97 EX

Hey guys.... I went to replace my wifes O2 sensor this weekend and found that it is $190!!...For just one! Can this be right!? Anybody replace their O2 sensor and find that this is the case? Also, that was the Primary sensor...the secondary was $214!! HolyCRAP!
Anybody know where I might be able to find a cheaper one?
Thanks in advance

Anybody know what the service interval is for an O2 sensor. I'm thinking that it may be 100,000 miles. If so, should I really replace it? What are some common issues arising from a bad O2 sensor?
Thanks in advance for all of the help!

Honda doesn't Have a recomended replacement interval on o2 sensors. They only need to be replaced if they aren't working properly. I've seen a number of them working fine with 300,000+ mile on them.
