Yes??? Unless the person in question agreed for you to sell their remains for personal gain, it's pretty messed up to do so.

If one of my loved ones decided to donate their body to science, and their skull ended up being sold to some creep who got off on having a human skull, I'd be pretty irate.

yes-with-three-questions isn't a very confident answer. if you're confident, why put a question mark after your words? Is that like the internet-comments-section Bat Symbol to summon others from your tribe to back up your less-than-confident position?
As a fully fluent English speaker, I read those extra question marks as astonishment that you'd even need to ask such a question and that the answer is seemingly obvious. And I'd agree with the commenter's sentiment. There's no question in their reply.
