"key" Programming?

Lost one of the smart keys from my car, just going to buy one off ebay used. Can the programming be done by myself or is this a dealer only type of thing?

A used key can't be programmed. You need to buy a new key from the dealership.

Well that answers that question, why would so many people on ebay be selling keys that are useless to any other car but the original one that the key belongs to? very odd....
