This story has appeared a lot the past couple of days. I never could find the video it talks about. Apparently black market organs is a big business.
Newsvine - AP IMPACT: Man says he sold kidney in US for $20k

    Yeah, you can imagine. It wouldn't do ANY good unless they had someone with a BIG need that was a CLOSE match. A weeks dialysis treatments, from what I understand, could EASILY exceed the $20K payment. I wouldn't trust black market though. They would likely take short cuts, and how good is it?

    Yeah that's true, kidney selling here in worldwide is famous, but most of the country prohibited this act of ruddiness, for me as dialysis technician, important thing for a man is their kidney so there's no point of selling it.

      What do you mean by this Kim,
      I still feel bad fir those people doing such things like selling their organs.They do it just for the sake of their financial problem.We find this quite often in developing countries.

    If I'm not mistaken this is very risky. Usually the ones who sell their kidney to black market are homeless people
