selling 1 kidney – $100
selling a kidney, if anyone is is interested…let me know 100,000 dollars OBO
Kidney donation is a wonderful, noble thing. Selling your kidney on Craigslist? Stupid AND illegal. But he’s not the only one.
Note: the ad says “selling a kidney,” not “selling my kidney.”
LOL, he’s the guy from the hotel bathtub w/ ice urban legend. I don’t know how you don’t know that selling organs is illegal. If it were legal, don’t you think people would SELL, rather than donate, the organs/tissue of loved ones who died unexpectedly without life insurance? The couple in the article would have better luck if the guy’s wife ponied up an egg. Though after this, I don’t know that anyone would really want to swim in that gene pool.
It also doesn’t really specify that it’s a *human* kidney.
(Also, pretty lame putting $100 in the title, but $100,000 in the body text.)
He probably stole it from Charlie the unicorn. I knew that kidney would crop up somewhere eventually.
I feel the need to point out that this person seriously low-balled them self. $100 for a kidney? Pretty sure kidneys go for a couple grand on the black market.
Outrageous ! I donate blood twice a year but will never for money
