Default Kluai New Nang Lum?

So I was looking around on ebay like I do sometimes to look for bananas I haven't seen before. When I came across this one.

Bulb Musa "Kluai New Nang Lum" Banana Plant +Phyto Cer. | eBay

They say it is Kluai New Nang Lum, does anyone know of another name for it that we may know? Also why is it $69? Is it the size of a couch or something? It better for that price, plus the economy shipping of $29.

Looks somewhat like a Plantain, but hard to say without seeing better photos. The reason it is expensive is because probably no one in the US or European market has the plant, and if they do, it is not common at all.

Their other bananas are expensive as well. This is the most expensive one though. I don't think I can see myself paying that much for a banana. I don't think most people on here would either.
