I suspect this is something that's actually of worth something to current owner of the testicle and none to any others (or maybe a trying to conceive wife or nutcase). I went to the article and checked out the pic and he doesn't look like a genetic goldmine either.

Should have been born a Caucasian women. Then she could have rented out her womb, body and sell her eggs and probably a couple more things too.

I have survived testicular cancer and you can live a normal, healthy sex life with just one testicle.

My big question is what is the buyer going to do with it? If due to illness or injury he lost both, is it something that can be transplanted and function like a new kidney or liver?

They actually didn't remove it, or rather, he didn't qualify for the study. His testosterone level wasn't appropriate for the study, unless something has changed since the episode of Extreme Cheapskates this past Wednesday.
