Ethically, yes. Legally, no. There are mandates that forbid the sale of body parts, organs, etc both Federally and (usually) by state. The only way you can legally obtain something, such as a limb, is A: necessary arrangements such as a way of preparing/preserving the limb in question, along with a signed and notarized statement from the pre-decedant transferring ownership, or B: an individual loses a limb and gives it to you.

And no, i'm not explaining WHY i know this.

I always wanted a Tibetan burial : Dismemberment of the body via machette, and then feeding it to vultures.

Now I'm thinking I want someone to make a killer xylophone out of my bones when the vultures are done.
