Default So many white-variegated bananas???

I was just wondering if some other members here saw some recent banana plant auctions on "the-bay" between the end of last week and the beginning of this week, in which a guy with username "birdbangkok" or something like that was selling around 4 "different species" white-variegated banana plants with even a lot more variegation than the Ae-Ae's. They were strikingly beautiful. But my questions are:
1. Did someone else here saw this auctions?
2. Did someone else buy any of the plants?
3. I know that there are lots of different banana varieties in the wild, even without identifying, but is it truly possible to find that much white-variegated species in the wild, and not a chemical acidifier/alkalinizer trick?

Thanks,
Carlos(tropicalkid in NC)
