Buying or selling the contract of an indentured person was not really or necessarily the same as "slave trading." Many folks came over here lacking the funds for passage, and indentured themselves to someone, either another passenger, the shipowner, or a promoter, to then work their ticket off (kind of a steep price, yeah).
