That was a helpful tip 
A bit mean.
Rob I understand, people buy used cars, and yea it is common they only give you 1 key.
Did you consider my suggestion? Because i've checked for mine.
I've bought a blank key with immobilizer on ebay for my 2002 monty and program it myself

"the cheapest way is to not lose keys.
ive owned 45 cars and never lost a key. Im baffled by the fact that people do this so often.
oh well. "
I'm baffeled by people who take time out of their days to post replys bragging about how many cars they've had and yet have nothing of value to offer to the original poster.

when some dip**** yells at me in the drive aisle saying (and i quote) "id have never bought the goddamn car if i knew the keys were so expensive! People lose keys!"..
i just wanted to smack the moron. People lose keys? So I get to suffer his ridiculous inability to be responsible?
Look, it works like this. If you bought a used car, its not perfect. And if its missing a key and you want another, you should be prepared to pay. Owning a car is not a free endeavor.
And if someone subscribes to the theory that "people lose keys", then maybe they shouldnt be driving! After all, you never know when you'll get hit by a bolt of lightening. Or a tire may fly off. etc.etc.
a little personal responsibility goes a long way in my book. sure, things happen. But something like this is pretty preventable.
