A Chinese guy sells kidney to buy iPad 2

(prHWY.com) June 15, 2011 - london, United Kingdom -- Beijing, June 3 From China's Anhui province, a teenager has sold his right kidney to buy an iPad 2. His mother, who knew nothing of his plans, now hopes to catch the criminals who disabled him, a media report said.

Though the price of iPad2 was high, the seventeen year-old Xiao Zheng had been dreaming of a new iPad 2 for a while, but the price was beyond his means.

Zheng found an agent ready to buy his kidney and traveled to Hunan province in central China to undergo surgery in a local hospital. With the 22,000 yen ($3,900) he was paid, Zheng bought a new iPad 2 and iPhone and then returned home, according to a report on the Dongfang TV channel Thursday.
It is bad to know that Zheng's health is failing day by day, and his mother said she hopes she will be able to find the criminals who disabled her son.

'Xiao Zheng returned home with a computer and a new Apple phone. We do not have the money for such expensive gadgets. At first, he did not want to tell me where he got that much money from. Later he confessed he had sold his right kidney to buy these things,' his mother told the channel.

Its shame on the people who aggravates minds of youth just for the sake of money. It's a debatable issue but leave it and never forget to insure your iPad by buying iPad Insurance. Damage, theft and loss of your costly iPad will force you to spend some more money, but buying an iPad insurance will be a good idea.
