Ebay 02 sensor purchase, HELP!!!

Ok, so i'm looking at replacing my 02 sensor. I found a few on ebay, but not sure if i'm being ripped off or not.
Here's one i found which the guy claims to be oem.
Can someone tell me the legibility of this product?
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/O2-OX...ayphotohosting


Also, can someone point me to a place where i can buy one for a reasonable price. By reasonable, i mean not more than 100$ shipped.

I know there are a few ebay "junkies" here, so can someone recommend something to me.

Thanks

No, no, no do not buy that one!

Go to www.oxygensensors.com and purchase the correct O2 sensor for your car with the factory connector installed. Universal wire it yourself sensors are more trouble. It will definitely be under $100 shipped.

Ok, so his point was, go to your local auto parts store. If you don't have one of those
