Depends on your size and what color you want, but that's a solid jacket for $104 and free shipping. Note that it's really lightweight (I think pretty much the lightest on the market?) so it doesn't have hand pockets or pit zippers. Works great by me and I don't like pockets on my jackets like that, your mileage may vary.
Most brands, like Mountain Hardwear, North Face, Marmot, etc, will have a $100 jacket with more pockets and stuff, and you should be able to find them for 70 or so.
As a general rule for outdoor stuff, there's no need to pay retail for things. Nearly everything goes on sale, or you can find an equivalent item that does. Plan ahead, like you're doing now, and just wait for a sale. For example, keep an eye out for last year's color and save a ton of money. Buy summer gear during winter sales. that sort of stuff.
