Kidney Sale of the Day

Kidney Sale of the Day

Kidney Sale of the Day: A Chinese 17-year-old wanted an iPad 2 so much that he reportedly sold a kidney on the black market to afford it. The boy, identified as “Zheng” in news reports, responded to an online advertisement offering cash for kidneys. He traveled to another city and swapped the kidney for $3,000 at a local hospital.

Zheng’s mother found him out because, “when he came back, he had a laptop and a new Apple handset.” She took him back to the hospital and reported the crime to police, but the organ buyers are nowhere to be found.

Meanwhile, Zheng is suffering complications from the surgery. Hopefully Steve Jobs will hear about the case and share some of his kidney transplant magic with a loyal customer.
