Majestic Honda tends to have the among the best prices around:

This puts the OEM prices at $406.01. I'm very surprised to hear you sound like you're under $300. Please link your source.

Looked up the purchase, bought the mounts from Honda Parts Unlimited in 2013. Did the pass side right away and put off the transmission mount off a little !
The trans mount - 50820-SNC-043 - cost $171 with shipping at the time. It's now $198 on their site http://www.hondapartsunlimited.com/oe-honda/50820snc043
Still a lot less than the $674 dealer quote mentioned below

The $674 was for a dealer replacing only the tranny side mount, which is about $400 for labor, which is to be expected from the stealership.
$171 is "almost $200" not "a little over $100".

$434.45 + S&H for the set of three.
Your post suggests that OEM parts are available for a little over $235 when going through a dealer site. That's just not the case.
The only way you're going to come close to $250 for parts is by going aftermarket. That's what I did with eBay and RockAuto. The friend I sold it to is still very pleased with the performance.
$406.01 + shipping and handling is the cheapest you're going to get a set of OEM mounts.

Re: Replacing Transmission and Engine Mounts?
one note i would like to add to this is, try and use oem mounts for the left side tranny mount.
i got a full set for about shipped to my door and replaced all the mounts ( left side tranny mount being the biggest pain in the ****) and they fit well and looked good until i started the car. i tried different ways to mount the mount to see if the mount settled properly into the car and torqued them nuts and bolts but i could never get rid of the horrible NVH
the NVH was horrible during accelerating, braking, coasting. i couldn't drive it for more than 2 days without going crazy.
so i bought an oem tranny mount because thats where all the sound seemed like it was coming from. it was night and day difference. i guess i was unlucky with the purchase.
the bottom pitch mount as well as the liquid filled right side engine mount in the aftermarket seems good because they are so cheap but the left side tranny mount i would highly suggest you go oem.
you can get lucky but i wasn't so if you have crazy NVH after replacing the mounts, try the tranny mount
