Pat Riot Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 How much for a brain? We could take up a collection and get some of our "Leaders" set up with all new experiences. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cypress Sun Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 Surprised that they're paying that much for an adult liver. I'd sell mine...but I've got too much invested in it and they might not want it anyway. Heeeyyy...Maybe I can sell mine, buy two child's livers (one for now and one for later) and still have $10K left over to buy 5K of primers. Win, win situation.

Forty Rod SASS 3935 Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 There's one problem here: I'm still using that stuff and don't want to sell it. Now, once I'm gone the kids can do what they want. After all, I won't be here to stop them nor yet question them. I only hope that whatever they get from my parts and pieces is NOT taxable!

Cheyenne Ranger, 48747L Posted November 5, 2021 Share Posted November 5, 2021 which brings me to my question of the day; "Is it legal to sell organs in the USA? does it matter if they are yours or someone else's? Is there a bonus if they come in their original container? I'll stop now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
