Default Who won this on eBay?

Just wondering if one our members won this banana that was on eBay. Sure is a nice looking edible banana. The company selling it told me that it is a seedless triploid, but wasn't sure of its lineage.

Don't know if I want to shell out the $150 to buy one, but it went for $127.50 as I recall, so buying one wouldn't be much different than bidding on it.

I don't know for sure, this one is variegated. It is seedless, but mine doesn't look as light as this one.

I didn't buy it but can tell you it's a Varigated Nam Wah, Not sure where white Thai comes from but sounds exotic so it must be worth more....lol If anyone chances it and buys one let me know I'd like to get a pup or two.
