Apparently this kid would

5 Charged in taking teen's kidney in return for Ipad and Iphone

So sad that THIS is what is happening to our society.

Re: Would YOU sell your kidney for an Ipad or an Iphone?

while i find this very disturbing and sad, i don't think it would have made headlines had the teen been 18..

they say the boy was 17 when he made the decision.. I'm only thinking about this like if the kids was 2 days shy of his 18th birthday, would people make such a big deal.

again i still find it sad and disturbing that anyone would do this, no matter how old they are.

absolutely not. My kidney is worth a lot more than an Ipad/Iphone

I am not sure if it was an age thing that made it so appalling and world news. Not sure what "legal" age is in China anyway, as this is where it took place.

At 17 I would have known to take more than $3500 for it.
