never thought about it to be honest.
assuming I am actually selling my kidney to a unknown individual I would say your 100k to 250k is about right. I would have to have a whole bunch of tests done before I could give you the real number. most are probably done when testing to see if you can donate.
my fear, and why my price might be higher, is if my kidneys weren't great or I was predisposed. which may remove me all together. but if there were potential issues I would jack up my costs, while conversely driving down my value. but this is from a pure functional standpoint more than greed. you can donate lungs. pretty much no cost could get me to sell a lung to a stranger. give it to a loved one, yeah. sell it no. skin I would sell pretty cheap. piece of the liver (never understood how that works) would also be pretty cheap.
There are lots of poor folks that would sell them for far less. Me, in my current situation? I don't sell until the price reaches a high 7 figures. If I lost everything and I needed money to save the life of a relative, I imagine my price would go way down.
