Yep, and both those parents share half the genome with Citra, yet taste completely different. That suggests a Citra seed with half the genome replaced may not taste much like Citra.

In any case the seeds on eBay aren't being described as half Citra, they're simply called Citra, so my gut feeling is that they're neither.
