It has always been that way.
No it hasn't, renal surgery hasn't been around for that long and the iPad for even shorter time.

I wonder how he felt when he finally got his hands on that iPad.. And realized how useless it really is. He was old enough to know better, what a looney.
I bet he could have gotten a cheap-but-just-as-good rip-off right there in China for $30 too.

Thats just desperate. 2 children for an ipad2? I'm sure she could have gotten it by selling just one... Sheesh, no common sense...
Well, apparently they place used tampons in vending machines and sell them to those with fetishes as well. Strange strange world... Sigh...

Gosh this is just incredibly sad.
I hope the kid wasn't infected, hopefully the person who took out the kidney was a doctor....

Totally agreed. This thing is really useless, it's just good to pass some time on youtube, when you're bored and don't have the energy to go to your comp..I wonder how he felt when he finally got his hands on that iPad..

Companies dont care whether you suffer as a result of your actions, as long as they can earn your money. I'm sure the chinese organ people didn't care what he was selling his organ to them for and i'm sure the apple company didn't care where he got the money from as long as he has it. This world is so bent on consumerism and materialism and it pushes everyone to keep up with today's 'trends' and that you are inadequate if you get left behind. Its a truly saddening thing to see...

I saw this through a post on Facebook. This is incredibly sad. The kid will probably regret this decision for the rest of his life.

LOL that kid got ripped son, if I'm not mistaken kidneys can go for tens of thousands (if not more) each.
gg China's market.
I mean, at least get your money's worth if you're going to sell off a kidney.
