I agree. 50/50's are black and white with more even banding.

Herpmom it means 50 black bands/50 white bands, at least theoretically
or half black half white.

The 50/50 thing was a joke, it's a myth that there are 50 white bands and 50 black. It is actually a common king. Sorry if I confused anyone.

Hmm... the 50 bands myth is new to me. There is also a color phase called 50/50 (or hi-white 50/50, or 50/50 desert phase, depending on who is selling it). Usually, there is a very clean, high-contrast white. The white bands should be at least as wide as the black (hence the name 50/50), but it can go up to about as much as 75%. That's what I thought he meant when he said it. Sorry for the confusion .
