I thought it was 100k last time I saw one listed?

Its probably like anything else...cash and 50-75% of the retail price.

I really think they wanted to know what morphs make up the banana ball, not how much it costs to buy the snake itself.

Probably the best way to find out what morphs make a banana ball is just email the guy who produced them.

Myself I have no clue what makes a banana ball..but I think it is a combination of a super form of some co-dom trait, super pastel maybe, and one or more recessive traits..albino maybe?

The banana isn't a combination at all, it is a morph all on its own.

A Banana is a morph in and of itself - Co-dom if I'm not mistaken - I believe that the Coral Glow and White Smoke balls are theorized to be the same thing as a Banana. Seems like I remember it being settled recently but cannot remember which way that went. Some feel free to correct me if I'm wrong.

(CJBianco explaining the origins of the BP market.)
"In the beginning Bob created the Ball Python market. And the market was without morph, and wild traits were upon the industry. And Bob said, Let there be morph, and there was morph. And Bob saw the morph, that it was good; and Bob divided the morph from the wild trait. And Bob called the morph Albino, and the wild trait Normal. And the Albino and the Heterozygous Albino were the first investment.
