Ebay Stops Kidney Auction
from the capitalism-goes-awry dept
Apparently someone posted an auction on Ebay for a “fully functional kidney” and the bidding hit $5.7M before Ebay brought it to a halt. Doubtless a joke, but a platform for interesting discussion — I recall a professor discussing the potential for the richest bidders to skew organ transplant lists with their ability to pay. He proposed that potential receipients bid on the number of hours they would pledge to charity in exchange for their new organ. Thoughts?

I just have my kidney removed about 8 wks ago–5.7 million isn’t enough
Different types of auctions
I think Todd brings up some interesting points in his post. The concept of the “charity auction” is different and pretty interesting. I am wondering, though, if the internet (gotta bring it back to the internet – that’s what I do) makes specialty auctions that don’t involve money easier… Or does it simply make it easier to scam an auction like that. It’s easy to say you’re going to give X hours to charity before you get the kidney and then try to get out of it after you’re safe and sound. One thing that folks have noticed in being involved with internet auctions is it’s easy to get carried away and bid well beyond what you meant to, or could reasonably afford.
Kidney Auction
Personally I see nothing wrong with a someone selling one of their own kidneys to the highest bidder. I would sell one of mine for $5,000,000.00 also. By the way I have A pos blood (Just in case your interested!)

25 yr old female kidney
drug free, healthy college student, considering parting with one of my kidneys. Since God gave me two, perhaps he wanted me to share one (for the right price of coarse). willing to negotiate, lets talk about the procedure, any plan of action you have, health risks,your insurance coverage, Etc.
That was my idea!
The law in every country today forbids selling organs, whether from living or dead people. (There are a few isolated exceptions, including blood and blood plasma.) The bizarre principle seems to be that everybody is allowed to benefit from the donation except the person who makes the sacrifice. The patient benefits, the doctor benefits, the hospital benefits. But if the donor benefits, that is somehow considered unethical.
In my opinion this is both bad ethics and bad policy. Ethically, someone who donates an organ, or agrees to make one available after his death, certainly deserves recompense. From a policy point of view, there is generally a shortage of organ donors, and providing recompense would increase the supply and save innumerable lives.
I don’t agree with the ban, I feel it only creates underground channels. People will do what is most important to them…if proper channels aren’t available they will be made in some form or another. You can’t stop necessity. There are also monetary forms of compensation that don’t break any laws, you just have to be smarter than Uncle Sam. I’m a healthy, athletic 35 yr old white male willing to give for compensation. I exercise, don’t drink or smoke and have no family history of any illness or disease. I’m type O-.
