The going rate for an appendix, in Lutz, Florida is $43,037.83. That doesn’t include the surgeon. My co-pay for the former was $64 and for the latter $60. An appendix weighs approximately one ounce or 28 grams. In short, my appendix is worth more than gold or platinum or the highest quality diamond, though if you start combining diamonds and platinum in jewelry, the dynamic changes pretty quickly. I do not own any single piece of jewelry worth $43,000, but then again, I don’t own an appendix, either. I’ll never have another appendix, but the jewelry… yeah, no, that’s not happening either. But I can afford this cool appendix necklace…..
