Door Seal/Gasket

I'm going through my recent purchase and replacing items needing it, one being the inside door seal (p/n 51727247258). I've found it for $112, which seems ludicrous. Any alternatives to that?

If your trim is in okay shape other than the part on the bottom where people tend to kick it, you could consider patching it with some black gorilla tape. Yes it's a band-aid, but doesn't show much and is $5. A friend did this in another car and it was fine.
If the whole piece is crumbling or rotting, then I'd just get a new OEM part.
