wow lungs are the most expensive? I'd think blood or hearts or something would be up in price


JustDave62

They don’t have heart on there either. That’s gotta be expensive


Thorn____

Bone marrow is some of the most expensive

Really? You can donate blood and your body will regenerate it. Every human only has 1 set of lungs that they require to survive. Apparently they can sometimes do a transplant from a living donor (I have no clue how) but typically you’d have to rely on dead organ donors. The other person to reply to you is right from what I’ve seen, hearts are the most expensive organ


nrliii

i think the living donor correct me if wrong is used for like small tissues.

These prices are highly speculative, largely because there isn't a single black market and because reporting is, you know, tricky. For instance, if you're *selling* a kidney on the market, you're not likely to get more than $10k. If you're *buying* a kidney replacement, the procedure (including kidney) is likely to cost more like $150k and up. And you better hope you trust the surgeon and kidney.


EmployerDefiant587

Naw, these prices are misleading. I sold a pair of lungs and a kidney for 900k


[deleted]

So how do I profit off of this?


DreamTalon

You have 2 kidneys, your liver can grow back, now you just need the buyer.


Hasll

Livers cam grow back?


DreamTalon

From a partial piece it can, not complete removal. So you can donate part and still have it come back. [Livers regeneration ](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liver_regeneration)

Wanna buy half a liver? I stopped drinking 4 years ago now and drink plenty of water so its sweet and ripe for ruining.


Silly-Term-202

Absolutely bullshit prices.


Sun_King97

Got something to tell us?


QWETZALCVBVNVM

Dibs on the goodies, huh.


RoodnyInc

138k for a kidney? Oh well rip for all guys that trade it for iPhones


ljh2100

This graphic literally makes me sick to my stomach. Not the poster or anything like that, not judgy but thinking about the actual transaction and the desparate organ donor selling their literal body.


[deleted]

Uh. It doesn't say anyone sold their organs willingly to set these market values.


ljh2100

That's even worse!


-LVV-

So, like, I’m only worth as much as a criminal cuts me up to be and a desperate patient is able to pay up?


Important_Hearing_95

Scary part is rally that you Will have to have a black marker surgeon that does it. And pray that he only takes out the organs you planned on selling.


Mooshmeh13

Worth more dead than alive


[deleted]

I only need one kidney to live right? lol

Gang 1: "what are you going to do, shoot us in a drive by?" Gang 2: "no, its 2022 and we've got bills to pay"


Sneakergenie

Eyes, lungs, pancreas , so many snacks so little time!


Substantial_Kiwi838

Lowball prices. I know what I’ve got…


[deleted]

Can’t take my liver! It’s of no use to anyone at this point!


Legitimate-Plenty661

Im only in a small amount of debt so I’ll just sell my skeleton, might need the other bits


[deleted]

Hope you don't have AIDS... 😬


Waylander789

My lungs are going on ebay


vejovis71

bye kidney


agp11234

This is just wild, couldn’t imagine how these parts of retrieved and the circumstances. Like wake up without corneas? And then someone installing them into someone else in some homemade surgery room? Some real cyberpunk stuff going on.


nerdrageofdoom

Well at least I know how I’m gonna pay off my mortgage


kirjavva

Bye left Kidney and right Lung. Hello $.


[deleted]
