Some people will do anything to get the latest gadget. In China a teenage boy went to the extreme and sold one of his kidneys so he could buy an iPad and an iPhone.

The 17-year-old's parents became suspicious when he came home with the costly gadgets, AP reports. Asked how he could afford them, he confessed he'd sold one of his kidneys for $3,500 so he could buy them.

Five people have since been arrested for helping him to illegally sell the kidney. One of the defendants allegedly received $35,000 after looking for organ donors online and allegedly arranging the deal. He gave the teen $3,500 as his cut of the deal.
