The second one of those is supposedly someone who bought a plant in 2011 from the seller Andrew just bought from (according to Andrew's seller via email), but it seems questionable that what he calls a "mother plant" in his photos is large enough to have produced pups. Pretty skinny looking.

I had written the person who bought two of these from Andrew's seller last year and left positive feedback for him. He told me that his plants still look nice but that they hadn't given any pups yet (I had asked if pups were variegated since Going Bananas had said that had been a problem). He said he'd email me current photos but I never received them.

Congrats, Andrew!

The seller of the first one, mda1515, is the seller that I bought many (or most) of my Thai variegated bananas from a couple of years ago. He seems very nice.

Miamimax, who is a member here on this forum, also has an incredible variety of variegated plants. Miamimax told me that he got many of his plants by spending the day perusing an enormous amount of greenhouse nursery plants at wholesale nurseries (acres and acres) in Florida and looking for the rare variegated plant. He told me that he suspected that mda1515 did the same and sells them on eBay.

I have bought lots of plants from mda (Mike) over the years. He has been very easy to work with. I spoke with him last month and he said he has these bananas on eBay. I havent seen any this but none ever this variegated. Harvey is correct that the mother plant is in a pot and not more than four feet.
Clare has very healthy plants and is an excellent source for variegated bananas. You should check out what she has!
