Lost My Key

2012 R350 BlueTec, lost one key, dealer wants $600+, say hand made in US and sent to Canada.
Is there another way to get a new key for my car?

Thanks! Yesterday when my wife heard it's $600+, she made an effort to find the key. We all knew it was her because we all put it back after use, only her keeps it in purse.

Lol. I spent 8 hours looking continuously for the key (and house keys) my ex wife lost, in the dark with a torch, retracing her movements and local shops, going to police station to see if they'd be handed in etc. When I got home and went to look in her bag, I was abused for even thinking they might be there....

The next day, guess what? Yep, in her hand bag all the time. Another example of why she's the ex.

Reminds me of the time I was on vacation in England and lost my key at a Happy Burger (I think). After the staff went through all the garbage cans, I remembered I had handed the key to my wife so I could get something out of the trunk and she put it in her pocket. We both forgot.
