Default Lost My Only Key. I Need Help.

Alright, so I only have one key, and I lost it this past weekend, and have torn up my path looking for it with no sign of it. I bought a new key off eBay, but it hasn't come yet. I go to school in Athens, OH at OU and the nearest Lexus dealer is 67 miles away, but there is a Toyota dealer like 1 mile away. I called both of them and they both said they don't know if they can program the key I get to work with my car, and their sorry. What does that leave me to do, Lexus hasn't been helpful at all, nor Toyota, and my car is stuck in a campus parking lot. Anyone have any ideas of what to do? I'm gonna get my car towed to the Toyota dealer once the key gets here and just make them try, but he told me it would be upwards of $200? To program a key, you got to be kidding me. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
