Personally I would have no issue with it. Then again I have been around medical crap and choices the majority of my life. I can accept pretty much after having to undergo a skin graft early on and that resulted in me getting a transplant of pig skin to my thigh. So I think if I can accept getting something from another species all together I am pretty sure a dead human would not even phase me.
I actually have not even given much thought to the people that some assorted blood transfusions I have received. OK yes they are still living or more than likely were when I got the blood but it is around the same lines.
I hear the body part market is fairly huge and from what I remember from that news show who visited a few mortuary conventions (ya even they do bro shows, lol). There were a lot of companies giving out such literature and pushing the body part business to the attendees. A lot of the parts seem to be in high demand and can be held for some time as I understand. The story you originally posted named a few pieces that they were selling. Of course they were being sneaky and stealing them and not testing them either. You will notice that they did not bust the buying companies.
