You probably have the cheaper to build, costlier to replace, integral hub
bearings. These have the inner bearing ring as normal, but the outer ring is
a hardened region of the hub itself. Once the balls get worn, or the outer
region damaged, you get a complete new hub. Check parts places for the best
deal. Should be about C$100 / US$80 each.

Rear wheel bearing / hub for a '95 Odyssey is about $450 at the Honda
dealer. I wasn't too shocked.
I doubt anybody would only want $100 CAN for the prelude one, since it's
proprietary.

List price for a 95 odyssey $240.39 You must be including the labor and the
dealer's option to mark up the price of the parts. Or maybe you needed both
sides?

List price for the Prelude is about $175

I replaced a rear bearing/hub on my 90 Integra for $170 CDN two years
ago.
Part is available at most auto part stores.
Very easy to do BTW.

That might be good news for me, since I never thought the Odyssey one
might be available elsewhere. I'll call around . . .
