Teen sells vital organ for money to buy an iPad 2

Weird shit happens in China and this is one of a lot more, we’re sure.

A 17-year old boy sold off one of his kidney for money to buy an iPad 2. Desperately wanting to get the Apple tablet, the boy found out that he could get as much as RM9,300 for a kidney, and so he did. Without his mother knowing.

The mother of the boy realised that something was amiss when the boy returned after have been missing for three days with an iPad 2 and apparently an iPhone as well.

A kidney for an iPad, yeah, that is a good deal. NOT!

This is not even funny. Its frigging ridiculous. Earlier, a few people were seriously injured as a scuffle broke out at an Apple Store in China when the iPad 2 was launched last month.

Materialism is so rampant in China and morality almost non-existent. It’s a scary place. But don’t think we Malaysians are better off, remember the grandma who waited in line for her grandson?
