This. Everything else posted here is nonsense. An organ donation, by its nature, has to be done between two willing participants (although one or both may have been deceived about the long-term effects of the donation or the payment).
You cannot just knock someone out, steal their organs, then put the organs in a cooler and walk around to hospitals trying to sell them. Things don't work that way (except in movies).
