Well MB dealers set their own prices, MB only sudjests a price. You have to be carefull with some of the keys, the newer cars don't have a normal "key" and they can cost over $100 to get another. Some models have more expensive keys then others.
As for the dealer cutting the key in the back I guess one can do that. But I was told the "real" ones are cut in Germany. MB makes keys hard to get and I think only a handfull of places in the world can cut them. I tried to get mine cut by a locksmith and no one wanted to touch it.
Also MB keys are steel not brass, you do not want to use a brass key in a MB.
