Steam does not take a cut from steam keys sold off steam.

Even if what you say is indeed the case (which is very possible), it still leaves a major question on the table.

What's the point if you (as a customer) end up paying the same price at the end of the day anyway, and you still have to use Steam DRM? The only difference in your case is that the cut is going to Best Buy instead of Steam.
