I need a PCM

Anyone know where i can get a PCM for a good price?
Heres the story:
I have read many discussions about this on a forum that my shop is part of. This site is where shops across the country post problems and fixes. The problem i am having is rolling idle, where my idle fluctuates (+ -) 500 rpms. my battery light is on even though i am charging at 14 volts. I just replace my alternator 2 weeks ago. I was driving down the road and my car quit on me. my check engine light is on but with no codes, and no data stream and after a few minutes of idling my dash shuts off. my cat is shooting flames about 4 inches past my cat. so i was reading and there were over 50 articles with the exact same problem. the fix was replacing the PCM. Honda has a bulletin saying that after an alternator replacement a voltage spike may take out the PCM and cause it to go bad and cause various electrical problems. This might be the same problem your having. Also anyone know where i can get a PCM for cheap
