IMHO, this is not shocking, so long as all of the participants are
"adequately/completely" informed as to the consequences of their
actions.
What IS shocking is that ANY government should take it upon itself to
deprive individuals of doing whatever they wish with what is theirs -
THEIR BODIES, THEIR MINDS, THEIR SPIRITS AND SOULS!

moral dilemma to solve...
<-snip--> in Pakistan and India it is not illegal to sell your organ
and because many people live in abject poverty, they are willing to
sell their organs to fulfill their financial needs. That is why
Pakistan is considered the most congenial place to have a kidney at
an affordable rate and also its transplantation in a shorter length
of time.
We at <-removed-> specialise in obtaining organs from willing
donors. These we make available to those that need them at a fair
market price. We also have ultra-modern surgical facilities and
several professionally trained transplant surgeons having over 20
years experience who can perform the transplant under industry
standard hygienic conditions.

I used to think this is a criminal activity and not a business, but
now they start open advertising... Organ trade from live persons...
A little shocking, isn't it?
