As an expert in medical ethics and the legal framework surrounding organ transplantation, I must emphasize that the sale and purchase of human organs is illegal in many countries, including the United States. The World Health Organization (WHO) also opposes the sale of human organs due to the potential for exploitation and health risks associated with the process.
The figure you mentioned, $262,000, is likely a reference to the costs associated with a kidney transplant procedure, which includes medical expenses such as hospital stay, surgeon's fees, and follow-up care, not the sale price of the kidney itself.
It is important to understand that organ donation is a selfless act that saves lives, and it should not be commercialized. There are legal and regulated processes in place for organ donation, which prioritize the health and well-being of both the donor and the recipient.

Other organs are prohibitively expensive, like a kidney. That little sucker costs $262,000 in the US (other countries have it for cheaper)! Here's the full list of body parts and their cost: Pair of Eyeballs: $1,525.
